Your 5 Boldest Predictions for the 2014 Season


Icege

Recommended Posts

Has the season started yet? Have we even played are 1st game yet? So how do you know all this?Paper don't matter when it comes to football last time I checked you actually have to play the games 1st.What's the next Powerball #s in TX gonna be? Since you no so much & all.

That goes both ways bud. How can all of these people say we're about to finish 13-3 and then spew this "logic" when someone says we'll be 8-8 or worse?

1. KB13 catches a game winning TD.

2. Gano hits a 60+ yd FG.

3. Underwood becomes reliable deep threat for Cam.

4. Brandon Williams ends the season as 2nd TE.

5. Thomas Decoud becomes a Pro Bowler or plays well enough to get snubbed.

1.   Benjamin another FSU bust, Avant will lead the WR's.

2.   Stewart on IR by week six.

3.   Cam gets his belly full of Shula's playcalling at some point and airs his frustration.

4.   Godfrey makes us forget about Captain Toast in short order.

5.   Bell a sieve at T, but Chandler turns into a beast.

1.Our offensive line is surprisingly adequate with solid contribution from Turner, Kugbila. Chandler becomes an adequate LT.      Strong in the running game.

2. Josh Norman and Melvin White become the starting duo by week 7.

3. We once again have a surprisingly solid secondary.

4. Cam throws for 30 TDs

5. Stewart runs for 1,000 yds.

1) Proving something to himself and family after his mother's death … DLo has an unexpected breakout season in honor of her.

2) Cam progresses heavily as a pocket passer.

3) KB will not be as advertised.

4) Keek becomes the bonafide #1 LB in the game (IMO he already is, but most outside of Carolina won't agree).

5) Roman Harper finds his old Pro Bowl form again behind our front 7.

How could you have all that offensive success and then fire the OC?

 

That's exactly how little faith I have in Shula. We could have a top 5 run game, but if our passing attack is in the bottom 16, I could see and would hope that Shula gets fired. Cam showed us in 2011 and 2012 that he can be an effective down the field passer. We need playcalling that can get us back to 4,000 yards per year passing, not 3.300. As efficient as Cam was last year, those were Dalton numbers, when we know Cam is capable and should be posting yardage totals closer to Stafford's.

1 posltive versus 5 negative.

Pretty impressive considering the OP only asked for 5 predictions.

Lol

Should have just omitted the chandler part.

1. Kelvin Benjamin almost hits 1,000 yards and 10+ TDs, earning RoTY honors.

2. A RB not named Williams, Tolbert, or Stewart will be our most productive RB

3. The OL will be noticeably better than last year, much to everybody's confusion

4. Cam will be responsible for a 90+ yard scoring play

5. NFC Championship game appearance

Unless we have a league worst D....a top 5 rush attack will almost certainly give is a bottom half pass attack under any QB who runs a running O.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
