pardon me for flipping out here but I say we're a lock for 7-9 if Fairley can't go. Armstead out for awhile. and Unger not 100% hope i'm wrong


I smell what you're stepping in, but I think we'll be alright, we'll be more than alright, we'll be fine.

Fairley's future still uncertain, but Rankins will handle his business and Onyemata will make the leap.

Unger may or may not miss some time but he'll play and contribute

Armstead will be out for the season, but Ramczyck will either take the left tackle position and will hold his own, or we slide Peat over (less likely) and Ram plays LG. Plug and play we will be okay.

The additions made both offensively and defensively as well as coaching changes will make us significantly better.

They'll be 6-8 and we'll all want them to tank but Sean P gotta break more records so they'll throw for 1000 yes in the last two games and finish 8-8 with a crappy draft slot that won't help anything

Definitely under. 7-9 season like the past years. Already have several key players likely done or done for most of the year. This team doesn't have the depth to survive key injuries because more are inevitable. This will be the year Payton gets fired and Brees goes somewhere else due to Payton no longer being here.

We will be rebuilding next year with a new coach and QB. If Brees leaves hopefully they go after Cousins. Not sure we'll be able to afford that though. He's going to destroy the QB market inflation. Brees and Cousins on the market gl. Both probably will be making 40 million a year.

Over. They meet the New York Giants in the NFC Championship Game, but lose in a high scoring affair.

I dont see the Giants getting that far. The NFC is wide open. Dallas wont be the powerhouse they were last year. Philly is improving and the Giants still dont have an offensive line. Green Bay is getting old. Atlanta will suffer after their 4th quarter collapses last year.

I would take the over right now. Too many people think because these 3 players are out that we are done. It doesnt work that way. In 2009 we lost Jammal Brown for the year. Losing Fairley will hurt the defense more than losing Armstead will hurt the offense. I still think we will be ok.

I'm still more worried about DE than DT.
I'm still more worried about C/G than LT.

I'd be worried if our corners dropped like flies again, these kind of losses are bad, but they're not backbreaking considering how we shored it up through the draft.

Fairley/Rankins
Armstead/Peat/Ramcyzk

be more concenred about Unger/Okafor/Kikaha

Well we were a play or two away from winning 9-10 last year if you think about it.. ref Oakland and Denver games

In spite of the downvote I'm a firm believer in a double digit win season.

Knowing the team's floor is essentially 7 wins, I took the over, so it's definitely gonna be under 8. Sorry guys.
