Where will the wins come from? (my early predictions)

Recommended Posts

Week 1: Sept. 8 at New Orleans  (L)

  • Saints away is always tough even when we're the better team.  Saints win 

Week 2: Sept 15 vs. Los Angeles Chargers (L)

  • Jim Harbaugh,  Justin Herbert - enough said.

Week 3: Sept 22 at Las Vegas  (maybe?)

  • Gardner Minshew doesn't scare me but the Raiders defense should be good.  I'm 50/50 on this one

Week 4: Sept. 29 vs. Cincinnati  (L)

  • No chance against Burrow and Chase 

Week 5: Oct. 6 at Chicago (W)

  • This better be a win, I think Caleb Williams will be a bust

Week 6: Oct. 13 vs. Atlanta (L)

  • Falcons will be the best team in the division and will sweep us

Week 7: Oct. 20 at Washington  (W)

  • I'll pencil in a win against Washington with a new (old) coach and new QB

Week 8: Oct. 27 at Denver (L)

  • If this was at home I would choose us, but I don't see us winning at Mile High

Week 9: Nov. 3 vs. New Orleans (W)

  • This should be a close game at home. Hopefully the team starts to gel a bit more and we pull off a W.

Week 10: Nov. 10 vs. N.Y. Giants (Munich, Germany) (L)

  • Giants don't scare me, except maybe Burns in this game.  I think we lose a close one

Week 11: Nov. 17 BYE

Week 12: Nov. 24 vs. Kansas City (L)

  • We'll get crushed

Week 13: Dec. 1 vs. Tampa Bay (W)

  • Team plays inspired football to help Canales beat his old team

Week 14: Dec 8 at Philadelphia (L)

  • no chance

Week 15: Dec: 15 vs. Dallas (L)

  • this will be a home game for Dallas

Week 16: Dec. 22 vs. Arizona (W)

  • we always do well against Arizona

Week 17: Dec. 29 at Tampa Bay (L)

  • revenge game for TB who will be playing for division title

Week 18: Jan. 4 or 5 at Atlanta (L)

  • Falcons win the division

I’ll gamble with Giants, Cards, Washington and a random NFCS game.   I can’t go higher than 4.  

 

Considering our 2 wins last year had us at scores of I think 15 and 9...If we actually lit someone up at some point last year I could see a little more optimism in getting to about 5

You can say this about every team in the nfc south

agreed, which is why if Bryce gets his poo together the division is for the taking. Even with Bryce sucking we were in every NFC South game last year

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
