Next year's surprise team


Matt Foley

Recommended Posts

nah, st louis literally needs like 19 new players

my money is on tampa bay. there's a poo ton of talent on that team, and if Freeman progresses, and they have a good draft (they've got like 45 picks) they're going to get really good really quick.

They might not be loaded but teams with the right mentality can over-achieve. Plus their division isn't the best.

the chargers and broncos are both better coaching and talent wise, and the raiders are just competent QB play away from being very competitive. there's too much talent there for them not to be.

the chiefs need like seven new starters on the offensive line, a new linebacking corps, and probably two defensive linemen.

I actually think offensive line is one of the stronger parts of KC. When Larry Johnson left and Jamaal Charles took over he was running like a monster. He had 1100+ yards and 5.9 yards per carry.

I agree that their defense needs an entire overhaul, but if they play the draft/free agency right they might turn it around. I can predict an 8-8 or 9-7 team from them, possibly even a wild card. Gotta remember, they have two 2nd round picks(one from ATL for Tony Gonzalez and our 5th round pick for Tank Tyler).

My votes go to the Seahawks, Redskins, and Chiefs

1) Redskins: already have a ballin defense, and a decent set of weapons on offense. Should easily be able to put together a good team through the draft. Not to mention they nabbed Shanahan who will do wonders for them.

2) Seahawks: already had a strong team that was plagued by injuries. They'll probably draft a project QB to develop since it's obvious Matt Hassleback is aging.

3) Chiefs: see above^

I can see Arizona doing really bad, and I think Detroit with a couple upgrades to their O & D line along with a descent corner could significantly improve. St. Louis really could use a new QB along with Seattle. The Redskins need alot of new components on their line along with a QB. The Chiefs could also be a team that shocks some people if they fill a couple holes on their O-line. Theres alot of teams that are close, raiders, browns, 49ers.

    • First, am I wrong? I looked back over all his posts here and I didn't see anything positive other than Shough. Second, pretty sure if you had read the post I was responding to, you would have seen CRA made poo personal as well . You just choose to address me instead of him. Not sure why?????
    • I wanted XL but I felt he should have been a 2nd rounder but I understand the logic trading up just to get the option. A safety net for your gamble.    Certainly disappointed with his receivers development but i like his down field blocking and I imagine that's what's keeping him on the field. 
    • Pretty sure it is a given Young lacks typical QB size and strength and he is here simply because his other attributes more than make up for it. My point is not to indicate anyone "settled" for him but rather to remind people that there have been plenty of big, strong QB's that have not lived up to expectations. Jamis Winston, Anthony Richardson, Trey Lance, JaMarcus Russel are a few examples. They all have the physical attributes coveted by teams and yet none have had sustained success in the NFL. And yes, there are QBs that do have both but there aren't many and some of the ones still playing were failures with their early teams. Saying Young is a bust simply based upon his size (and I do think it is as simple as that for a few guys around here) is unfair to both him and the team.
