I will go with 8-9, I think Bryce will be much improved with the new weapons.  Still a ways to go talent wise on the team though 

I would agree it would be 8-9.  I see the Saints being in last place once again.  The real question is who will be in first place will it be Atlanta or Tampa Bay?

This is a 5 win team tops.

Ya'll have fluffed me enough to reach 3....wins. 

For 7 wins- need the best health league-wide, young needs to 4k, 25TD, 8INT, evero wins ACOTY and tons of luck.

This team played in the worse division and was the worst team. It took miracles to win those two games, pouring rain, 4th down convS, and Eddy to spilt with NO time on the clock. Hella bad team and the overall talent dropped(minus BB, luvu, bell, etc), no true 1st and a rookie HC with only one year as OC.....the OC is younger than JJJ and thielen.....

I just hate to poo'd on fellow fans that want to buy the hopium....

I like the addtions on defense and believe our defense is going to keep us in many games.  If the offense  can put us in the 20-24 point range we might just have an above .500 season.

No one gave Houston a shot at making the playoffs this time last season.  Why can we duplicate what Houston did in 2023.  

9-8 and in the wild card hunt.

Gotta love optimism. 

If the defense gets a couple of injuries we are going to be getting blown out on a weekly basis. 

Weak pass rush + thin secondary

The downside to signing two guards to big deals is, if Icky struggles again, can’t slide him inside. It has gotten progressively tougher to project LOT coming out of college I know that. We are going to find out about him this year.

It might need to be a thing where you draft a flyer later every year until one works.

TBH, I think the bigger concern is now center. If Icky falters, there is at least a half assed option at LT. If Corbett falters, there is no other NFL caliber option at C. That could get really ugly, REALLY quickly.

LT is tough but at least you can ATTEMPT to have the guards, TE's and RB's help some. How do you help if the center is getting ragdolled(see last year for some rough tape of that)?

I was OTR as saying I did not see them taking a C high. Like Vegas, I wasn’t taking a side necessarily, more just speculating on what they would do. 

My deciding factor was I did not believe they wanted a rookie starting there.

I don’t see anything screaming they are stupid and feel like it is a fairly calculated risk based on their experience. I won’t condemn it before I see it, about that simple.

I don't understand the strategy at center even a little. TBD how it works out but it does seem to be heavily reliant on a magic 8 ball strategy.

Welp it will be one or the other. They will be vindicated in their judgement or crucified for the lack of it. 

They are new I am giving benefit of the doubt for now. We have enough mistakes from Fitterer and Tepper et al to be skeptical for sure but I’ll stick with the 2023 mistakes as my primary concern (QB) over whether we start a 2nd round rookie at C. It needs to be seen but that is where I lean.

For real, with this guy at QB being totally unproven, and you being tasked with bringing him into viability, would you feel that putting him under a raw rook would be the favored move?

I mean....aren't we doing that now?

    • I get it's subjective and I said "PFF rated him as" one of the top deep ball passers during that time, which is an accurate statement.  They are still a group of professionals that look at film and data in order to make their judgements/ratings.  These people whose data has been incorporated into a lot of teams' staffs view Bryce's deep throws as some of the best in the league during that stretch.  That tells me that he can probably throw a deep pass vs the Huddle's version of he is small and didn't do it his rookie year so he must not be able to.  That and literally seeing him do it just makes me feel he is more than capable of doing so.   Do you think PFF is skewing their opinion to prop up a QB in a bottom tier franchise?  It's just another group's opinion and I feel is pretty respected around the league currently.  It's not the gospel truth or anything.  
    • I still remember how happy I was that gettlegut was not the GM once he picked Jones, that was a firing pick and well..... If not for the raiders drafting Clelin Ferrell, it was the biggest draft day mistake in the last 20 some years. 
    • He had 251 passing yards. 3 passing touchdowns and 2 rushing touchdowns. All in all a very impressive game. Problem is I do not envision his rushing ability translating like that over the course of the upcoming season. Yeah it will be something to account for from time to time but one it's not sustainable and two you don't want to put his durability to the ultimate test against a motivated defender willing to take a penalty and a fine. And plus with our backfield. Two 1k yard rushers. That's what they're here for. Then we have a much improved WR room. That means Bryce has to elevate those passing numbers substantially. The fact of the matter is regardless of circumstances it did take him 23 games to surpass Kyle Allen's single season passing yardage from 13 games in 2020. And that is not a high bar by any means. Whatever QB tier Bryce ends up in from here amongst his peers this upcoming season when it's all said and done it will be with his arm.
