Yes, very true but consider this, in 2009 our offense set the pace every single game and scored first drive every regular game. Our defense was a ball-hawk and that's it. They were middle of the pack at best. Their skill was strip-city INT which saved some games.

Under Sean Payton we've had average defenses every season except for 2013 when RR came first year. Now our D is hurt (like what happens to every RR defense after 1st season).

Seattle? Agree.
Dallas? I'd say we're about even. We have the QB advantage
Eagles? I'd also say we're about even. We have the QB advantage
Green Bay? We kicked their ass last year.

Not buyin what you sellin!

Some of us aren't blinded by the black and gold spectacles that tend to skew the view. How do some people justify a 11-5 record or better when more than half the offensive production was shown the door replaced with a olinemen and a running back that can't get on or stay on the field. The defense shown the door the guy even though was a jerk but got to the opposing qb. The top two corners are hurting and are gonna miss time. The defense is filled with rookies.

Some of us aren't being Negitive Nancy's just wanna use our eyes and head to think instead of our hearts that bleed black and gold

Face the Facts people this team is not the team of a few short years ago

We were terrible on defense last year, and lost several games in the final seconds, and still finished 7-9.

We've upgraded almost every position except TE, yet some believe we won't be any better?

Our division was really crappy last year too. If it were any other year we would have gotten swept by all of them the way our defense was playing.

Re: Post your predictions

I just want to scream when I read threads like this. No one knows what will happen that's why it's called predictions. At least predicting the weather is based on science. I don't have any predictions because I don't know what kind of heart this team will have. I just know what they need to do and that is dominate the division because I don't think 10-6 will get a wildcard.

I disagree on the last sentence. SF, St.Louis, Minnesota(unless they win at home against SD, Seattle, and Green Bay), Chicago, Washington, two NFC South teams, and one other NFC East team will not have 10 wins. I have Detroit having a down season so that leaves Arizona, second place NFC East team, and us if Atlanta win division.
