16 Sat, Dec 24 Tampa Bay W 17 Sun, Jan 1 at New Orleans W

Manning was certainly a bright spot in 1998 for the Colts, but he also threw a league high 28 interceptions as the team struggled to a 3–13 record.

Rookie records

Most passing attempts: 575[241] (surpassed by Sam Bradford in 2010)

Most completions: 326 (surpassed by Sam Bradford in 2010)[211]

Most passing yards: 3,739[211]

Most touchdown passes: 26[211]

Most consecutive games with a touchdown pass (games 4–16): 13[241]

Most games with at least one touchdown pass: 15 [43]

Most games with 300+ yards passing: 4 [43]

Assuming Cam starts game 1 2,000 yds 10 tds 20 ints 500 rush yds 10 tds

His rushing tds will always lower his passing tds but the teams redzone efficiency should be high.

Start the season 6-3, then go on a 6 game losing streak. Yikes.

After predicting 10-6 last season, I must tell everyone NOT to predict a good record and playoffs. You will eat it hard.

I don't see how anyone could think of us doing anything over 7-9.

Very good point, I will say we return to 2008 form. 12-4 baby!

:p

My prediction:

at Arizona Cardinals - Victory

Green Bay Packers - Loss

Jacksonville Jaguars - Victory

at Chicago Bears - Victory

New Orleans Saints - Loss

at Atlanta Falcons - Loss

Washington Redskins - Victory

Minnesota Vikings - Victory

Opening the season with a victory is 50/50 against the Cards at our home. We will lose to Green Bay at Lambeau, and no one will be blamed for that.

However, if Clausen beats the Jacksonville Jaguars (quite possible) in game 3 at BoA, but plays terribly thereafter, he still will not be replaced by Cam Newton until after the second half of 2011 season begins. My prediction is that Cam Newton does not start the first half of this year(and perhaps longer).

Being 2-1-0 at game 3 with Clausen under center is not a stretch.

I predict that with Gettis and LaFell continuing to develop, Steve Smith will not be the obvious primary receiver. More importantly, the addition of Shockey is likely to result in the ball being spread more evenly across all receivers (including him). It's not stretch to imagine Shockey/Chudzinsky/Rivera producing 500 yds in 2011.

Progression through reads across multiple receivers (similar to a Saints offense) is where I will guess that Clausen's playbook familiarity and NFL experience exceeds the obvious contribution made by Newton's legs, until which time that Newton is confidently making 2nd and 3rd reads after the snap. When Newton is consistently throwing to his second and third reads, the job will be his. I do not see that happening right away.

I can however, picture Newton behind center in the red zone when we want opponents to believe that the QB might in fact run the ball in for a touchdown. In this specific situation, Newton's presence alone might be an advantage. Even funnier, imagine this red zone setup with Armanti Edwards in an option/reverse?!?!

I predict we will lose DeAngelo Williams to free agency, but we will pick up an Eric Wright, Eric Weddle, Gibril Wilson, or Brodney Pool for our backfield. We have to considering the offenses we will face in our own division. We cannot ignore the backfield this offseason. Improvement is necessary and required.

I believe our defense will be ranked high by the end of the year. Our offense will simply run well, and score more.

I really don't get why you guys are so damn intimidated by this schedule. Very few of these teams outmatch us in talent. I think you will surprised how much Rivera is going to help this team.

Chicago is an overrated ass loser team who very much remind me of the 08-10 panthers but with less talent. Tampa Bay surprised some people last season and I think we could just as well have a season like they did. They will tough but not unbeatable.

And lastly as I've said numerous times the Saints are an overrated finesse team filled with a bunch of candyass fairies. Not scared of Drew "Candyass" Brees in the slightest.

[rico6]

No way in hell does Indianapolis beat this team. If the running game is back to par we'll rape them hard.

[DevilCat]

I'm sticking to 8-8...and we sweep one of the NFC South teams!

[mav1234]

I'm thinking 4-12. I'm hoping that my optimism last year means I'm due to be wrong on the opposite end this year and we win more than I expect!

[Ricky Spanish]

the only games I see us having a chance at winning are arizona, Minnesota, Jacksonville, Tennessee, and maybe Houston.

Doesn't mean we'll actually win those games, just means we have a shot.

throw in 1 or 2 victories in division and I say we are looking at anywhere between 4-12 and 6-10.

[pantherj]

4-12 if the Saints rest their starters. 3-13 if they don't.
