This offseason where have we gotten weaker?


All your position by position analysis could be dead on accurate and we could still lose 2-3 more games quite easily. It’s simply hard if not impossible to maintain 13 wins annually in the nfl. Especially when your qb is in his 40s and physical regression can come hard and fast.

I think regression with Drew can happen but i'm not expecting a Peyton Manning fall off a cliff type dip.

I think a strange and shortened offseason benefits a team like ours and hurts someone like the Bucs.

In the end i say we fall between 11-5 and 13-3 depending on how the ball bounces. 12-4 is the middle ground.

Meh. I see us doing 13-3. We actually have offensive weapons now. Staying healthy is the only question mark as it is for each team going into the post season. Overall, Saints are stacked and well coached. Overlooked as well which is perfect!

Oh frick! Every year we hear this. This is a brutal schedule! How is this rated the 24th easiest schedule! We'll be lucky to win 10 games! News flash usually 3-4 teams on these schedules end up being any good the remaining teams are trash and if you maintain your top level of play you end up 12-4 or better.

I'm honestly feeling a 14-2 or 13-3 type season. I feel more positive going into this season than last. It's just a gut feeling.

and exactly how often are teams as good as they were predicted to be all based on conjecture?

every year gimme sure win games turn into slug fest nail biters and expected loses turn into blowout wins

any given sunday isnt just a cute saying, its true


You just said what I say on this message board every fricking year to these clowns who try to look at the schedule 4 months before the season starts and predicts wins and losses based on what a team's record was last year. IT DOESNT WORK THAT WAY

I have a bad feeling Ruiz and McCoy won’t gel together with the rest of the OL and that Brees might fall off a cliff like Brady.



Just a gut feeling but I think we go 8-8 or 9-7

17' 18' & 19' were your shot to get back.



Easy to say this knowing the results of those seasons. Reality is in 17 we had no clue what the team was, and 19 we lost Brees and were lucky to even have a shot honestly. I feel about this year like I did 18, but we will see.
