Thread: Predict the 2011/2012 season

Schedule just came out:

@ chargers 4:15 W (Chargers usually start out flat, a good opportunity to get a great win here)
vs bucs W (Home vs. the Bucs, I think we can rattle Freeman
vs. Lions W (They're still the lions, and we should be able to manage
@ Chiefs L (Tough away game, I think they get this one.
vs Cards W (shit team, we should be fine)
@ Bears SNF L (We play like crap on primetime usually, and at Chicago. The combination won't help
vs. Pack 4:15 (possible flex game) L (Just don't think we stack up)
@ Panthers W (It's the Pantehrs
Bye
@ Pack MNF L (At GB in primetime...)
vs. Raiders W (They're overrated IMO)
@ Falcons L (Falcons are tough
vs. Broncos 4:05 W (Broncos are not)
@ Lions L (Lions win this one
vs. Saints L (Saints come away victorious
@ Redskins W
vs. Bears W(Finish with a win for 10-6 and a Wild Card spot)

All of this of course is based on having a Quarterback who plays better than Webb did last year. It might be an improved Webb, a FA or a rook.

@ chargers 4:15 W
vs bucs W
vs. Lions W
@ Chiefs w
vs Cards W
@ Bears SNF L
vs. Pack 4:15 L
@ Panthers W
Bye
@ Pack MNF w
vs. Raiders W (They're overrated IMO)

@ Redskins w

12-4 if we got a QB

With Webb

@ chargers 4:15 L
vs bucs L
vs. Lions L
@ Chiefs L
vs Cards W (shit team, we should be fine)
@ Bears SNF L
vs. Pack 4:15 L
@ Panthers L (I think cam newton has a big game)
Bye
@ Pack MNF L
vs. Raiders W
@ Falcons L
vs. Broncos W
@ Lions L
vs. Saints L
@ Redskins W

4-12 2nd pick and we take Luck

With Rookie QB, Mallett/Locker

@ chargers 4:15 L
vs bucs W
vs. Lions L
@ Chiefs W
vs Cards W
@ Bears SNF W
vs. Pack 4:15 L
@ Panthers W
Bye
@ Pack MNF L
vs. Raiders W
@ Falcons L
vs. Broncos 4:05 W
@ Lions L
vs. Saints L
@ Redskins W

8-8 tied for 3rd in our division with the bears

Damn.

6 - 10

maybe 10 -6

@SD - W - Griffin and Cook are big enough to play with Jackson.
vs. TB - W - Nothing they do scares me, most of their wins were really close. Frazier knows their D.
vs. DET - L - Our O-line is gonna be feeling good after winning 2 in a row and keeping Webb clean(he'll do some of the work too, of course) and Suh will beat us inside regularly, Webb will make some rookie mistakes and throw bad picks.
@ KC - W? - If the interior DL comes to play. Could be a loss just as easily.
vs ARI - W
@ CHI SNF - W? - Frazier's gonna have a different team out there in primetime than Childress did, and the Bears aren't anything special, but they're solid. They'll call it an upset.
vs. GB - L - As much as I don't like to say it, they're good, they'll stop us cold in this one.
@ Panthers - W
Bye
@ GB MNF - W? - Take advantage of their over-aggressive pass rush after our first outing and use screens and the running game here.
vs. OAK - L? - in a close game that we had opportunities to win.
@ ATL - W? - Overrated. If we get to Ryan, we're golden, their D can't stop us no matter who the QB is.
vs. DEN - W
@ DET - W
vs. NO - W? We won't drop 3 straight to these fuckers.
@ WAS - W.

I think we finish between 9-7 and 11-5, but I might be going soft in my old age. I used to be far more pessimistic about this team... I guess I need something to be optimistic about.

I can't say I'll be surprised if we finish 7-9, but I would be if we finish any lower. We got rid of Childress and Favre, that has to buy us a few more Ws.

Hey, I missed Week 17, vs. Bears, that's how we close out the season, I still think best-case we finish 10-6 if we see improvement at QB.

My prediction is based on having McNabb and a Rookie QB on roster, Rice returning and Edwards returning.

@ Chargers 4:15 (L) We lose this game because the offense does not click. McNabb is added to the team late, and the offense is not practiced until after the CBA is finished.

vs bucs (W) (Crowd is happy for some football. Offense does just enough to get the win

vs. Lions W (McNabb gets rolling but this one is too close for comfort)

@ Chiefs W (They run the ball...we stop the run #checkmate)

vs Cards L (They add a QB and beat us)

@ Bears SNF L (On the road?)

vs. Pack (W) With a healthy Griffen and Rice.. we show the world we are a better team than most think

@ Panthers (w) Cam gets beat down

5- 3 By
e
@ Pack MNF L (Primetime = loss)
vs. Raiders W (They Run the ball...we stop the run)
@ Falcons L (Ryan becomes elite this year)
vs. Broncos 4:05 W (Tebow plays well this season but gets beat down)
@ Lions L (On the road...Sully can't stop Suh)

vs. Saints W (In the Dome..Saint's are proven overrated)

@ Redskins W ( Deadskins)
vs. Bears L(Classic Vikings Loss when a win is needed.)

9-7 miss playoffs.

16-0 ... lose in the Divisional Round to Green Bay because that is how we roll.

Can't make a prediction without knowing who's going to be under center.
