I can never get a grip on this team. They honestly won't surprise me if they win 11 games or 6.

Same. If they can close out games and come up with that big drive when needed, then 11 wins is very realistic. But if it's the same team as last year then 6 wins is very possible.

This week will tell us alot I believe. I know it's only one game but it's a big game and these guys know it. I'm interested to see how they come out and if it's a different team then what we've seen the last two years.

12-4

 

We lost 6 games last year by less than 7 points.  Two years ago we lost 5 more games  by less than 7 points.  If we maintain status quo and not get any better on offense, our defense is much improved (hopefully).   We played a lot of cover 3 because we had to bring the safety in the box because of our bad run defense.   Now we will be able to play more straight cover 2 along with hybrid defenses that will give the ability to hopefully cover the tight ends (ie tony gonzalez, graham) who have been killing us.  Also look at how much longer plays were extended by Brees and Ryan just by being able to step up in the pocket.  We will win at least 12 games.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
