I predict we could win a max of 4 games or be as low as 2, we have zip at QB, offense will really struggle to score points and while defense will be solidly improved, it is still very young. I hope it is indeed 2 wins, because that would mean we get the QB of our choice without any trades. Any more than 4 wins, and we might not get one of the top 3 QB's available. Any thoughts that we could win 6 games is pie in the sky IMO. |
They have solid defensive coaching. They could have a rough patch with a new DC. Vrabel is taking over as DC and Romeo is now mainly an assitant HC and defensive coach. I also believe they are now replacing both safeties. who knows what kind of an impact that should make.
I am not sold on their offensive coaches at all.
I believe winning 9 games last year was a fluke by them. You look at their history, prior to last year, in the seasons they had a negative point differential most wins was 8 or when their offensive scoring was ranked 25th or worse they won 6 games. Last year they were 28th in points and had -49 point differential and won 9 games. I believe their division got better and they still have a huge question mark at QB.
I dont know about them easily winning 7 games. 7 or 8 games might be their ceiling.

I believe that it will be a toss up as to which pick is better, out own or theirs. The records will be very similar I believe, only our needle points up while theirs points down.

And if he fixes those deficiencies, brings his game consistently the way he did on the big stage against the closest thing to a pro defense in Alabama multiple times and has the "IT" factor the way he did in college, they will win the Super Bowl.
As long as we're talking in hypotheticals and generalities...
