But alot of those games we're playing against other young hungry teams. It typically comes down to who wants it the most, if our guys can step up and make plays, and get a winning swagger about them, who knows. But I still don't see us in the playoffs. We'll be fighting the Jags, possibly Titans, Jets, Bengals and/or Browns for wild-card spots. Do you honestly think we'd beat out all those teams? I don't think we can harbor a better record than a few of those teams, in which case, we're screwed. Well, you may have a point in our easy schedule.

The defense is young and hungry – I think we start slow and finish strong-(opposite of last year) because of the youth making mistakes and learning. Our ‘backers are hungry and really not much worse than last year (Nap Harris underperforming) and their load will be lighter with improved corners, albeit young.

The team is much the same as last year
OFFENSE
+plus at OL 1
=even at QB 0
=even at WR 0 – actually probably better here.
+plus at RB 1
=even at TE 0
=========== 2 ======= gains
DEFENSE
-neg at DE -1
+plus at DT 1
+plus at DB 1
=even at S 0
=even at LB 0
=========== 1 ======= gain
-/+ neg/plus for the youth 0
+plus for strength of schedule 1

Not sure what all this means, but it makes me start thinkin’ playoffs… HOMER?

Our linebackers are weak (other than D.J.), and the rest of the defense is extremely young. I also think we'll lose a lot of close ones, because it typically takes a young team a while to figure out how to win. L.J. will give us a chance, though. But we won't be a playoff team.
