7.5 wins against a 1st place schedule ain’t way off. Even with 5 17 game seasons in the last 8, we’ve managed to max out at 8 wins. We still haven’t been over .500 since 2017 and there’s a question as to why we’re expected to win 7.5 games?

I'm more surprised our odds to win the division didn't really improve that much after free agency (like +380 -> + 320). I threw a few hundred on us to win the division again at +425 back in February, just because I figured Atlanta and Tampa would get worse.

After our free agency, I am still surprised Tampa is the favorite to win the division.

I would say over at the 6.5 line but until we see the schedule next month it would be tough to see 8+wins as it stands now

Nah, 10 wins this coming season. NFCSouth crown a second time, modest run in the playoffs.

Tampa Bay is going to crumble.

New Orleans is a couple of years behind us on the rebuild, but they've got a good young QB.

Atlanta is a rumbling wreck.

I guess I could see it if we got breaks, but we got the breaks this year and it was still 8 wins.

 

Also I dont see TB crumbling, they are a competent franchise that hit the injury bug last year

I dont know what to think about NO so theres that.

Atlanta majorly upgraded at coach so there is always something to having a competent grown up leading a team.

I think TB will be a good deal worse talent wise next season.

  • Evans and Dean are big losses for them.
  • Losing White hurts also because the dude was really good on screen and swing routes; I like Gainwell, but 2 small RBs is an odd mix.
  • Lavonte David retired (Alex Anzalone was a sneaky good free agency signing for them and probably their only good one).
  • They still have no pass rush and their secondary is a mess now without Dean.

Tampa might win the division next year, but they are going to have to outscore teams to win. I think they have one of the least talented defenses in the NFL. Outside of Vea, Anzalone, Winfield Jr., and maybe Diaby, their defense consists of a bunch of JAGs

If you weren't always predicting against the team, I might pay more heed to what you're saying. But man, I just refuse to step in the turds you're dropping. 

At some point, especially in the off season, you've got to give yourself a chance to hope.

      Yes, but those guys aren't depth guard signings, they're likely going to wait and see who has injuries or players under performing and then sign there. I also think that if Ickey really is going to be able to play at some point this year, that's where our guard depth comes from.  As if he gets to the point of being active, we'd then have 3 LT's on the roster with him, Freeling, and Walker, gotta think one of them not named Freeling gets kicked inside if needed.

      lol imagine being Hill and this is what your coach thinks about you replacing a guy giving up over 4 goals per game.

      I don't think Tyreek is a bad player to play with on the field, for sure not in the same way that Diggs is, as he's a cancer on the field with how he acts, and wouldn't take kindly to being 2nd fiddle behind T-Mac. It's that Tyreek is just a terrible person who realistically shouldn't even be in the NFL, his insane athletic ability is why his off field transgressions have been overlooked.  If he was a WR3, no team would have kept him around, it was only that he was a 1st ballot HOF level talent that kept him around. Just zero interest in having a person like that around our young WRs, that's really all it comes down to for me with him. Again, if we were true contenders this year, that changes things and I'd rather bring in the best possible players and hope it works out.  But they're trying to build something here and to do that, you need high quality people, not just great talent.
