Poll: which team(s) with a losing record in 2011 will have 10 or more wins in 2012?

[Califan007 The Constipated]

You can vote for more than one team :yes:...

[Gibbs Hog Heaven]

None of them.

Hail.

[Area51]

Panthers. They’ve got a very explosive offense and their defense should be improved. I can see them winning 10.

And Redskins

[SkinsFTW]

I doubt any of them do but if I had to pick one I'd say Carolina because of their division. Maybe the Saints will still be good though, we'll see. I'd like to say the Redskins but with a rookie QB and that secondary I'm just not seeing more than 7-8 this year.

[Bacon]

None of them. The Panthers showed some flashes last year and may improve, and the Skins have improved their roster dramatically but with that schedule, I've got to face facts.

Dolphins and Browns may actually be worse.

[brandymac27]

Redskins

[GhostofSparta]

I know all of us voting "None" will have egg on our face, as somehow 1 of these teams will find a way to do it...but I just can't figure out a way for any of them to do it. To me, the 2 most obvious choices are the Panthers and Chiefs.

But the Panthers play in the NFC South, and good luck to that young team beating NO and ATL. Plus they play Chicago and Denver after having a putrid D last year, and the entire NFC East. I can definitely see them improving, and I can easily see 8-8, but not 10 wins.

As for the Chiefs, they have 3 key offensive cogs coming back healthy: Cassell, Moeaki, and Charles. Outside of a healthy Manning, the AFC West is pretty pathetic, so they could easily end up with a winning division record if they play well. The play the AFC North (2-2) and the NFC South (1-3 or 2-2, depending on Carolina most likely). Their 2 other games are against Buffalo and Indy, which they could also win. That's a very sketchy 10-6, but it's possible. I just can't see them winning all the games they're "supposed" to win AND going 4-2 in the division to pull it off, so I'm going no with them as well.

And I picked the Redskins to go 7-9 in the "Guess our record" thread, so I can't in good conscience vote for them here The rest of those teams will probably be putrid.

[terpskins10]

Don't forget the Chiefs also have Eric Berry coming back. They're really primed to do something if they can get some consistent QB play, IMO.

[Murphs56]

I'd say the Panthers. I think the Skins win 8

[Warhead36]

Panthers and Chiefs are the likely bets.

[DogofWar1]

Said Bills and Panthers (fingers crossed for us, but kinda doubt it).

Bills were lighting it up when F. Jackson was healthy. Basically that prediction hinges on the team's health. Bills get to 10 if players are playing.

Panthers have an explosive offense, and will probably improve a bit on D, which should up their wins.

KC maybe gets close, but San Diego, Denver, and Oakland could all be tough teams to beat, and should have better years than last year.

[88Comrade2000]

I voted for the Chiefs.

Anyone going to start a 2012 NFL prediction thread?

[veteranskinsfan]

None of them.

[DeMarco Murray 29]

I would go with the Redskins. But the division they play in, I see them going 7-9 or 8-8.

Panthers are going to be good with Cam. But another team that plays in a wicked tough division.

I will go with Kansas City. They get Charles back and their secondary is healthy. Berry will be huge for them this season.

[Mr. Sinister]

Edit, Chiefs

[HogNose]

Of all those teams I can only see the Chiefs having 10+ wins.

[TradeTheBeal!]

I like the Chiefs from this list.

[TheItalianStallion]

I can see some of those teams improving (including us), but I'm not sure I see any of them winning double digit games. It's kinda funny, because that means the "none" option doesn't apply to my stance, seeing as I don't see 10+ wins from any of them, but I don't think "they'll all stink again" either, as some of them I'm guessing will win around 8.:laugh:

[Rocket442Olds]

A lot of the media here is really hyping up the Bills this year, but I just don't see it. Their O-Line is as weak or weaker than ours, and other than RB with Jackson, they have nothing on Offense that scares anyone. Stevie Johnson is good, but hes not that good in my opinion.

I could possibly see Carolina doing it, but they'd need another Miraculous season from Cam. Its tough to ask for that two years in a row. 8 or 9 wins, and I think a few of those teams make it, but 10 is not easy to do, and you usually need depth to do it.

[redskindan07]

I would have to say the Panthers are the most likely

[skinsforlife101]

I voted none of them I think the Skins and the Panthers will be better and have 7 or 8 wins. I am not 100% sold on KC. The Browns and the Dolphins will fight it out for the number 1 draft pick

[illone]

I voted for NONE.

Skins might get to 8-9 wins, but not 10 yet.

[Bibby]

I went with the Bills because I remember last year they were rolling until the injury bug hit them and hit 'em hard.

[LadySkinsFan]

I pick an AFC team each year and I like the Chiefs this year. They seem re-energized under Romeo Crennel and I hope they have a good season.

[Audible_Red40]

I think the Chiefs and Bills have the best chance.

Skins should be 16-0.
