I'm optimistic that the NFL (moreso than any other sports league) see's the biggest turnover of top teams year in and year out.

Why not us?

We will have a top 5 offense. And we have done everything within our power to improve the defense to a top 15 level.

No reason we can't compete for it all by seasons end!

And dont even start predicting wins and losses. Like I said. Those good teams from last year may suck arse this year.

Bold prediction: WE SWEEP THE CAMTHERS!

Somewhere between 6-9 wins just like I thought last year.

Last year, I scoffed at people. I knew last year was going to be disappointing but not that bad. I feel a lot better about this season, solid draft, we got leadership on defense which can't be stated enough. I think 10-11 wins is possible, maybe more.

I feel like I do every year since we've had Drew and Sean. We know what we are getting from the offense. There is no reason to think the offense will rank lower than 5th in the league.

If the defense is middle-of-the-pack or better, then we can win 10+ games.

If they are bottom-of-the-pack, we win 7 games.

I'm just hopeful and excited to watch some football again.

Can definitely see this team being 6-10 or 10-6, and that makes for a season with guarded optimism.

I'd be stoked at 8-8 and getting close to sniffing a playoff birth

I think after back-to-back 7-9 outings, anything more that cautious optimism would be unwarranted.

I think they've made some changes that could prove to be positive. They've brought in some rookies, who could potentially be very exciting. There are some things to be hopeful for. Not sure how all of that will translate to Wins and Losses, but if we avoid the injury bug, we can definitely be competitive with anyone.

I think 6 wins is about the best we can expect.

7-9 is our floor with Payton and Brees. I don't expect that to change.

7 or 8 wins.

We need Brees to re-sign.

A good draft for OL and DL.

Strong off-season free agents with good cap position we'll be in.

Make our run in 2017 and beyond.

I think that's around our ceiling, but certainly possibly. And 7 wins being the floor.



I'm leaning toward 9-7
