Zen-like Todd Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 I don't care who our QB is, or who we add on the defensive line. There's no way in hell this team won't win more than 8 games....<br /><br />12-4 it is......<br /><br />Premature? Hell ya.... what's your point? Part of me really says 13-3/14-2, I'm being conservative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 It would take the injury bug of 2000 for us to have a sub 500 season.<br /><br />We resign our players and address depth at OT and we have a very good chance of improving by 4 games.

BCS:BraveCaringSoul Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 Put me in for 13-3 with TWO glorious wins against those dastardly Cowpukes!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 I'm still going to wait a bit until I see what kind of offense and defense we will be running and whether it's system based or player based, but, the coaching staff certainly appears exciting to behold. We have a number of player moves to accomplish and I am as optimistic as anyone, but, I'm only nudging my early prediction of 6-10 back to .500 until I see more shake out.

2cents Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 Sorry guys, don't talk about double diget wins until we know who our QB is. <img border="0" alt="[deal]" title="" src="graemlins/deal.gif" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 well, actually I thought this team could have gone 10-6 last year with Graham at quarterback.<br /><br />and that goes to show you how weak the NFL is these days. you put together a solid but unspectacular team, and you end up in the post-season with a bye.<br /><br />look at the Bears. average qb, average offensive line. average secondary. good but not great players at rb and wr.<br /><br />let's face it, the Bears have 3 or 4 excellent players and the rest of the team simply overachieved.

shamaran Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 If someone could find Mr. Wells' Time Machine, put Sonny in it and make him 25 again, bring him back for this offense of '02-- we would still win 6-8 games!<br /><br />Regardless of player additions (and subtractions) this entire team is going to take time to gel after yet another coaching shake-up. If SS goes .500, he should be honored as Coach of the Year IMO! If Dano can give it a few seasons. . .it will be good, if not. . .back to the coaching merry-go-'round.

hailredskinscom Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 To early to tell if Vinny screws everything up by putting dumbn ideas in Snyder's head. Lets see how the draft goes and who Spurrier brings in at QB and WR, then I'll make a fearless prediction. I kind of have a hard time predicting a record liek 12-4 and the playoffs because of hopw much us Skins have been disappointed for eight years.

bulldog Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 I agree that I don't expect to see the Skins in the SB in 2002, but I dispute the statement that this team can't be competitive for a playoff spot.<br /><br />How do you explain the 2000 Saints?<br /><br />New coach. New quarterback. New #1 wide receiver. 2 new players on the DL. 2 new cornerbacks.<br /><br />New system on offense...........<br /><br />And yet NO went 10-6 and beat the defending champion Rams for the division and in the first round of the playoffs..........<br /><br />It CAN be done.<br /><br />I would not put a cap on what this team can achieve until we see what happens in the offseason and then how it meshes in camp.<br /><br />Areas of perceived weakness as the Saints had at WR and DT all of a sudden became areas of strength with Joe Horn and Norman Hand as value pickups in free agency. <img border="0" title="" alt="[smile]" src="smile.gif" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rat_Boy Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 Didn't a team with a new defesnive coordinator and eight new defensive starters go to the Super Bowl a few weeks ago?<br /><br />It could happen, though I am not counting on it.

bigchuck Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 My prediction is 10-6. Next year if we improve the personell in the right spots, 13-3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 with the right quarterback all is possible, grasshopper <img border="0" alt="[notworthy]" title="" src="graemlins/notworthy.gif" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 I dont expect any brand-new head coach to top 8-8, so any higher than that would be gravy. Bottom line is just don't know what kind of a pro coach Spurrier will be. It's certainly not a given that he'll be a success in the NFL.<br /><br />I agree with Shamaran. If Snyder can be patient I think we could eventually make some noise. I'd be suprised if it's this year, though anything's possible nowadays.

88Comrade2000 Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 Right now I'm up to 8-8. It's way to early to even guess because we don't even know who our QB is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForSkins Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 Come on guys! We have some powerhouses on that schedule who will be back to their regular form. I am the ultimate optimist here but 10-6 is as high as I go. And we will HAVE to get our Playoff spot by going through Philly twice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Tater Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 ForSkins,<br /><br />10-6 is NOT optimistic, an optimistic record is 16-0! Oh, yea 3-0 in the tourney:drool:<br /><br />Oh well, it is early. We get a good qb and sign our people, 13-3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
