It will be hard to say until a major decision comes up, thats when Payton shined through like gold, except for those stupid end arounds, I could never see what he saw.

I'm curious, who all thinks we don't have a chance? Most of what I've read says we're still the favorites.

We are clearly the best team in the NFC South. After that, why not bring it all home?

Still too early to be worrying myself with how well we'll do this year. Still think we are a playoff team regardless. And we're finally getting a defense, an actual tackling defense!

I agree burningmetal!

I'm very excited to see the progression some of the young players have made and will make under Spags' tutelage: Jordan, Wilson, Casillas, Bussey, Gallette, Patrick, Robinson, Abdul-Quddus, Amaya, Jenkins, and last but not least Romeus.

All of these guys are 24 or younger and have heaps of potential just waiting to be harnessed and focused by a capable teacher, and Spags certainly seems to have the ability to do just that.

These guys are part of the reason why I'm also not just excited about the coming season, but about the future of this defense and the team in general.

Right'o!

I forgot to mention the most important addition to the defense, but you said it. Spagnuolo... This guy alone brings credibility to any defense, which makes the acquisitions even more great. Of the players you mentioned, I'm most excited to see how he develops Romeus, Gallette and Wilson. But all those guys have serious talent, no doubt. Can't wait to see it all come together.
