Yea, pretty much this.Eagles. It will be a close race, but I just see us struggling enough with the run game early in the season until the defense rounds into shape. The D's ability to take up the slack will be the key. If they shape up quicker than I think, then we could take the division. But right now, I think the Eagles are more sound on that side of the football.
Even like they were last year, it was not like we took the division and ran and hid. They ran out of gas and we got stronger, thanks of course to the run game.
RB is the best in the division by far.Their skill position talent is probably the worst in the division and their lines sure aren't better than ours either.
As long as we stick to the run, none of the RBs will matter. The yards come out of the passing game. We just need the run to keep the defense off balance and chew up clock.I say something implodes this year. Like not having a RB.
8-8 no playoffs.
I agree and think Michael gives us more stability here.As long as we stick to the run, none of the RBs will matter. The yards come out of the passing game. We just need the run to keep the defense off balance and chew up clock.
I knew. I just didn't want to admit itThe last time I felt this confident going into a season we went 6-10. That said, I think anything short of a couple of playoff wins has to be a disappointment this year. I would never predict a Super Bowl because too much luck is involved, but the potential is there for the first time in a long time. I say 11-5, but I feel like it could be better if we win a few of the tough games. Our first 8 games are the toughest. If we come out of that 6-2 I could easily see us going 12-4 or 13-3.
Yep. In order to name a prediction it would need to be couched or have stated contingencies. That's why I didn't respond to it.These things go out the window when you lose your starting QB for the season.
