That would be great for 2 reasons: 1) Get to see how Reagor does with Russel Wilson. 2) We would be rid of his blow-off attitude lol

LOL you know Wilson would not stand for a drop. He would go over and beat the kid senseless . I'm all for it 😂

I have a way too early prediction of 12 wins

I like your optimism!  This would surprise me though....

We could play MASH units again,although I believe that is a long shot

Five Prime Time games this season. Most notable to me is Wentz and his Commanders <---(LMAO) come to Philly Week 10 for MNF. 

Wentz's Wuss

Isn't Hopkins out for Arizona for 6 weeks?   We play them week 5.

Good for the team(ours), bad for evaluating secondary players, but I suspect we''ll get beat up enough by others. Howie knows we are in a bit of secondary trouble,I believe that's the first time coming clean for him with what we have all known for a LONG time. So it seems to me Howie's ego is adjusting away from the me,me,me. I'm still hoping there is a FA secondary player we will get

he weighs more than alot of pass rushers and he is as fast as a WR,why would you NOT use him as a pass rusher? Gotta play to a mans strengths or why take him?

That’s where you caught up in the wrong numbers my friend. You see him move very well. And he does. Think he can chase stuff down well. Especially considering his size. But what’s most important for pass rushers? That get off on the snap. Don’t think he has that. As athletic as his numbers are….think he might actually stink at that initial burst. I don’t know. We’ll see. Doing draft prep. That’s what I thought. Why I thought he went to the bench on passing downs. Watched Georgia play a good amount. But can’t say I was following that closely. So just a few clips of highlight stuff I picked up on. Maybe something….maybe not. But forty yard dash doesn’t really tell that tale.

There is your excuse. If we win….but no Hopkins. Your streak almost can’t be broken.

Totally fine with any advantage in the schedule. Expectations are rising. Want that division crown this year. Keep overachieving. Beat any nfl team on the schedule to get the highest seed possible and a home playoff game. Hope we get real lucky. Let the draft experts earn their pay.

FA secondary pretty done. But a trade….or maybe a cap casualty drop

If we get a corner to step up think it fixes things. Then just need a decent S trade or pickup. Think that would be doable.

I just went thru the schedule and am changing my prediction to 8 wins. So 7-9 is most likely in my mind.... Do not believe we beat Dallas, GB, Minn, Tenn, Indy, Pitt, Ari and we lose to NYG once.

But you already said they didn;t use him as a pass rusher,so how would you know about his burst if he was not used for that? Freight train have no bursts either,but try stopping one

I'm going for 9-8(we still play 17 games now right?). I think we can beat Tenn,Pitts and AZ with their star WR out. What miffs me off is the expanded "international" games. There is no HOME field advantage

Would you rather play Arizona with or without Hopkins?

It's not an excuse... trying to find a reason we don't win 14 games.  Dallas twice, Green Bay, Arizona,  Tennessee are the games I'm looking at as possibilities of losing.. 

1.  we can agree Dallas isn't that great and because of how they handled Dak's contract,  they lost a bunch of key pieces...so split there.

2. Arizona should be a win, I don't think Murray is great,  WRs carry him, won't have Hopkins.   

That's leaving 3 losses.  ..14 wins.    

If it all clicks 10 wins but I think 9 is still progress if the teams are at 100%

Why shouldn't we win 14 ?

Vikes will be tough if our secondary gets exposed. Good WR's and a top RB.

First off I'm not all that sure we can beat the Wuss twice

Home opener...here on a Monday night.  Huge advantage....they have to stop our guys too.   That should be a win, they weren't as good as us last year and we had better offseason.   No reason it should be a loss.

Remember last year we faced the wuss with ONLY McLaurin and a worse QB,so I am not convinced

Hopefully we don't come out flat like we have at every home opener under Ped and year 1 under Siri-SHOW ME

IDK Joe, Theilen, JJ and Dalvin are formidable weapons and we know our secondary is weak at best. if we want to win,we'll have to outscore them,but I don't think it's as easily done as you do
