We beat ourselves huh?

sounds like the excuse losers use. 

When your kicker is shanking field goals left and right I'm not really going to credit the opposing team for that.

Gano missed a FG against the Broncos. Even so, we gave up a lot of points later in the game. That should've been in the bag.

Rivera didn't go for it on 4th down against the Raiders. That game should've been in the bag.

Kelvin Benjamin couldn't reel in a pass against the Chiefs, and Rivera didn't just sit it out until OT even when that game should've been in the bag.

We beat the Chargers.

All I see is 1-3. Every team in the NFL can use the "we beat ourselves" excuse.

You can counter all those arguments.

Gano always misses 50 yard FG, so is no surprised he missed it.

The raiders were blowing us out before Carr got hurt.

Alex Smith literally missed 3 WIDE open TD passes that game.

The NFC South was definitely not the best last year.  Not even close.  As to the upcoming season, we will have to see what happens.

It's the AFC West. But the NFC South should start to get more credit with all 4 teams making appearances in the Super Bowl in the past 20 years.

We beat the Chargers.

We should have won every single one of them games.

Two teams with MVPs and super bowl appearances in consecutive seasons. Plus, the only division to have all four teams in the super bowl since the new merger, id say we have a damn good division.

We were both of those last season and we sucked so I don't think that has any bearing on how good the division is today. It's been 6 or whatever years for the Saints and 13 for the Bucs. How does that help in 2017?

3 prior NFL MVP QBs in one division, and an up and coming QB in Jameis Winston, along with powerful offenses and decent - stout defenses in the NFC South, and I say we have a tough division.

We are a good team and so are the Falcons. I would think Bucs will be goodnext year too. That's a solid division.

[Davidson Deac II]

Fwiw, I would rather the rest of our division suck.  This isn't college, strength of schedule means nothing.  And having a tough division doesn't help you in the playoffs.   So hopefully, Atlanta, Tampa, and NO will all be horrible next year.

The NFL South was 4th in wins last season and only put one team in the playoffs. Those things sound good but if they don't equal wins and playoffs they don't mean anything
