NFCS predictions...

Yeah, that looks about right, I think Atlanta takes a minor step backwards due to a poo D. Although people think the bucs underachieved last year, I think they'll have a winning record again. The Saints will be improved, Brees won't throw that many interceptions again.

The panthers are going to suck ass again as well. So pretty much flip flop last years Saints and Falcons record, and that's the 2011 season in the NFCS.

If the Panthers finished 8-8, playing a tough 2011 schedule. I would have to believe they would be a dark-horse pick for the play-offs in 2012.

I think all of the NFCS teams are "close" or already playoff ready.

Despite our horrible record the Panthers have talent.

I think Saints have made some very underrated moves this offseason.

I think Atlanta COULD be explosive on offense, but I worry about Julios hands and Turners Legs. Not to mention the defense.

Tampa is young and a ??? mark.

Carolina is going to be really unpredictable weeks 1-8 around week 8 they could become a VERY dangerous team for playoff contenders to encounter. But I see 6-10 at best really.

So

Saints

Falcons

Bucs

Panthers

Saints: 11-5 (they've got one of two more good years left before Brees starts his decline. I expect this to be there last big hoorah. I think they make it to the NFC Championship game)

Falcons: 9-7 (they will score a ton of points, but will also give up quite a few. They are a wildcard team, and could make some noise in the playoffs, but they'll get bounced early due to the defense)

Bucs: 7-9 (I think they go backwards. They are a really good team, but I think they benfited from an easy schedule and suprised a ton of people who had them as a gimmie. I think the saints sweep them, they split with the Falcons, and possibly split with Carolina with Carolina winning late in the year.

Panthers: 5-11 Still a long ways off. I could see wins against Arizona, Jacksonville, Tenn, Tampa, and Minnesota

Come on now! Those Bucs predictions are based on the one preseason game against NE aren't they?

You know better than that.

NO

Bucs

Falcons

Panthers (starting over)

Preseason games have nothing to do with my prediction. Its just a feeling that they are still a year or two away from being able to compete for the top spot.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
