We Could go to the playoffs

[antame]

exactly, I;d be happy with 5 or 6 wins this year so long as Cam proves he can be a somewhat competent quarterback. Something Clausen came no where near accomplishing last year.

That being said, I wouldn't be surprised If we win more than that, provided Cam does show something.

I'm optomistic. My over under is 7.5 and I take the over.

Some of us want the team to do everything possible to make the playoffs every year. It isnt playoffs or bust. It is trying to make the team the best it can be. Starting Cam is saying we dont really care about winning this season.

That's a trailor full of horse manure!

nope, our division is too strong, we're a good 2 years off

Our defense is the best in the league. Our offensive line is one of the best in the league, Our running game is on of the best in league. Only thing we are missing is a QB. Heck I would even bet our WR's are better than any in the NFC South.

No, No, No, No, No

Our Defense is good but not NEAR best in the league. LBs are very solid but D-Line and Secondary are suspect as poo right now. Our line has 2 perennial pro bowlers, 2 good guards, and if he can stay healthy a mountain of a RT. Our running game is good but we need to avoid injuries and our WR group is average at best right now. Smith is the only proven one, everyone else will need playing time to get better.

We are a couple years off. It's one thing to be a fan, it's another to be a homer.

our defense line is total poo, our offensive line wasnt that great last year, but has been good in years past, our running game is amazing, our wr core is pretty terrible

If we were in the NFC West, then I would say...Yes, we have the talent to make the playoffs. But in the NFC South, 10 wins still might not get you into the playoffs.

That being said, I don't think we will get more than 8 wins. But 5 or 6 wins, as others have said, would be a positive. Looking at this schedule, though--and it is BRUTAL--its hard to see where even 4 wins are going to come from.

Success in a season like this hinges on a spark. Will Newton be the spark this team needs to catch fire? Stranger things have happened. I have faith, at least right now, that Rivera will be the right coach for this team.

One ray of light...

we play Arizona week 1. THis is the most winnable game on the schedule right now. If we can go out and get the W in week 1, something big could happen.

I would like to see us get Mark Brunell - experience and would be a great mentor.

[g5jamz]

If this hadn't been a lockout summer...I'd be more inclined not to agree, but as it is I would have to agree. Asking a lot for a rookie to come in and start an NFL team with reduced prep time.

Don't know about bringing in another QB though.

[Hairless Cat]

I hope we pick up a vet qb- my choice would be Bulger

[Bj-Monster23]

I have to agree to some extent. Im not going to say we could go to the playoffs but I do believe with good QB play we can make a push. You guys have to be patient .What we need is a Vet a QB to mentor Cam and Jimmy. We need to see what we can get out of them its always growing pains the first year you guys need to understand that. But what makes you a better team is how you get through them. If Mark Sanchez Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco can get through it we can get through it to because i feel that our QB can be good to.

[OneBadassCat]

I'd love to get Buldger here. He's just the type of guy that would teach Cam the details of the game and he's just the kind of guy that could help salvage Jimmy Clausen.

How is our WR corp terrible?

Some people, I guess, believe rookies should come out looking like a young Randy Moss. Anything less with Clausen throwing the ball with Fox calling plays, is terrible.
