Ehh they did make the NFCCG last year and Shanahan has done incredible things with the team pretty much whenever Jimmy G has been healthy and playing decently. Lance is a question mark but at least offers massive upside over Jimmy G. I don't think they win the NFCW either but I don't think it's that outrageous. There are big surprises every year and many teams do suffer SB hangovers, plus Stafford's shoulder is a question mark too.

Yeah just going by the 49ers offseason I wouldn't put them above the Cards even. Trey Lance looked bad enough in the preseason that they kept Jimmy G who's shoulder isn't 100 yet, their O-line looked horrible. I guess they might be able to get away with it if they keep the games low scoring

If the Panthers win the NFC South this year then that means we are going to see a serious implosion in Tampa this season. I'd love to see it (especially since it's Brady's last year), but I find that highly unlikely.

We've won 5 games for three seasons in a row. An above .500 season would be a great success. If we made the wild card this year I'd call that a tremendous success. If we ended up winning the division and  hosting a playoff game in the postseason, then Rhule would be a legit contender for coach of the year. 😂

Not that I out a ton of weight in these picks either way, but I can't knock him for that one either...  I have a feeling LA is going to have quite the championship hangover.  OBJ is still a FA.  Von left.  And apparently Stafford is dealing with an injury that affects his ability to throw.  It has all the makings of a team struggling to defend their title.  While I don't know that Lance is going to blow people away, they are always a well-constructed and well-coached team.  Seattle is going to be garbage, and I think AZ will be their only real comp down the stretch, so I could see it.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
