I'm still traumatized by how confident the organization and much of the fanbase was last year after we looked like the hottest of trash in the preseason. I was roundly mocked on here for expressing concern and condescendingly lectured about how real fans understand that preseason doesn't matter and we're gonna start kicking ass when we're actually game planning. I was like... okay, we'll see. Well, we saw.

And you were painfully correct.

Def taking the under. I see 1 or 2 wins and another #1 overall pick. Let’s hope a QB really impresses in college this season. Will be focused on Ewers.

Even before the schedule, I think top 5 seemed like a very good bet.

Our new coach has already publicly said that Bryce is basically a game manager at best with the 1 of 11 stuff. The writing is already on the wall.

I just don't know. New coach, new system, new management, new weapons, excellent draft, great free agency pick ups. I mean, that's gotta create optimism, right?

Except we've heard this before. Like three times in the past six seasons. 

I hope Canales has the answer, but they're going to have to make me believe this time. Show me something. Anything.

I was waffling on 5 or 6 wins before I opened this thread.  Funny the odds are 5.5 wins.  I said 6 in the prediction thread, but there's NO WAY I'm comfortable with that number; certainly not enough to put money on it.

The NFL is a year to year league. You need to start forgetting about the poo show from last year and move forward. 5 1/2 sounds about right. The NFC South and NFC East are week. The Doom and Gloom of the todays Huddle are not realities of the todays NFL. Things change quickly, enjoy the ride.

People don’t realize how much roster turn over happens across the league. Can’t remember who posted it on Twitter but the nfl averages 47% of new players on a roster for every team.

Under all day. AFC West and NFC East??? Ouch.

Honestly, AFC West isn't particularly great outside of KC. And Washington and NYG aren't very good either...

That being said, we will probably still lose most, if not all, of those games because we suck

How do we play those divisions and our schedule is third easiest? Guess because we’re in the South.

Indeed. You always have to take those "easiest" and "hardest" tags with a significant grain of salt in the preseason. 17 games will tell the story of who is actually an easy or difficult opponent

    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
