Predict next season W/L

8-8 until I see the draft and Camp Wofford, and make sure we are healthy going in.  Also want to see how Jerry's beloved league puts the screws on us with the schedule again.  A season finale in Charlotte for the first time since 2009 would be a nice olive branch to start with, but you know they are going to skew everything to the advantage of the Katrina Pity Partiers.

We get the last game away every year because of the Belk Bowl. C'mon man....it's not a conspiracy. They're not out to get us.

Not buying that one. Tampa has had home finales on Sunday and the Outback Bowl the day after.

Right...it's the day after the NFL game, not the day before. They're not going to let the Belk Bowl tear up the field before an NFL game.

And you're "not buying it"? Go look at the dates and you can figure it out for yourself.

Tell the Belk Bowl to stick it then.  Although with an SEC addition next year, it may finally be halfway worth a poo as a game.

 

Seeing the 'Carolina' and 'Cincinnati' seeping through our end zone fonts during the playoff game two weeks afterwards sucked though.

Haha...agreed. Hopefully the game will be better.

I hate it because it means we usually get the Christmas game as a home game. I'm hoping to go out west for Christmas this year and the Christmas home game will screw that up.

Making W/L predictions before FA or the draft? No thanks bro.

 

Before the freaking SB haha

 

If we can go 12-4 when we are technically still trying to build an offense surrounded by Hurney's ashes, I think we can do 12-4 or better again.

    • we are not talking about the 5th we are talking about bryce being one of if not the worst starter in the nfl for the past 3 years.  Dont move the goalposts my man
    • The issue is the position Bryce plays. Finding a good/great quarterback isn't easy. Plus, it sometimes takes years for these guys to actually become good/great. What you have to look for is progress instead of regression. Bryce has shown that. Can he put it all together? We don't know yet. But that's why you place a smaller bet with the 5th year option, and wait to see. You could be wrong and lose your 30 mil bet, but you didn't hitch your wagon long-term and lose much more.
    • Absolutely not. That’s too much for replacement level player. Bryce may be that. Or he may turn into something more. If you can’t see the flashes, you’re willfully blind. There’s more bad than good right now, but there’s less bad than there was earlier in his career. He’s only 24 and he’s showing signs of improvement. He may never become consistent enough to justify a long term contract, but he’s shown enough to roll the dice on what effectively will turn into a 2 year, $30MM contract for the next two years to see if he can earn something longer.    Sure, in his one season starting, Howell managed to throw for 3,946 yards and toss 21 TDs, but it took throwing the ball an astounding 612 times. He also threw 21 INTs (for a particularly egregious 3.4 INT%). For all the talk of him being a deep ball thrower, he still only averaged 6.4 YPA, with an average air yards of 5.6 yards per attempt. And for all the excuses of Washington’s line giving him no protection (65 sacks taken that year), he was only pressured on 22.7% of his dropbacks, which is a few percentage points lower than what Bryce has had to deal with each year (24.2, 26.7, and 24.0%).    These are all numbers that are at best roughly equivalent to Bryce’s production the past two years. It’s wild to me people can claim so confidently that he’s a better QB.
