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.

    • Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!
    • How do I activate said Krispy Kreme deal? I'm stoned man you can't be playing with me about this...
    • When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
