    Wins and losses each need to total 81.

    Wins and losses must be equal and each tie takes one of each away.

    You have to understand my state of inebriation when I finished those picks. It was really hard to see the numbers properly. Ill stand by those final totals and bet in the end they will come closer than most other early season predictions.

    I’m overthinking it because I’m irked that our problems from last year appear to be even bigger problems this year? 

    Maybe, but lets see how our talent we have plays out and see who we might bring in. Having Kongbo sign with the Leos is certainly a big loss. For sure no one in training camp or preseason came as advertised except maybe Thomas, Caba might also be an answer. We might also be stronger in the back end with Alexander and Darby starting the season , so that might make a difference. Until we play a regular season game with real bullets flying we wont know how this will play out. Preseason is for trying to figure out what and who works best.

    I wasn’t looking to cut Bighill or Jeffcoat or anything like that, that’s not what I’m after. I’m not even sure my complaint (more of a frustration, I guess) is even directed at the coaching staff although I think part of it is.

    It just feels to me like we almost wasted training camp. It feels like instead of finding some answers to the questions our roster has, we’re just banking on the questions going away and I don’t think that’s a safe bet with our roster getting older and older. Let’s not kid ourselves, we’re not aging into our prime here, we’re aging out of it.

    You're over thinking it. You never know when a gem will appear and of course you do want to recruit with that in mind. However finding the next one is not all that easy. Other things come into play like signing castoffs who might have been overlooked or not needed , trades etc. With the strong veteran core and some prospects looking good on the practice roster, I think we will be ok. we for sure do not want to do a Wally and start cutting vets who might still have some serviceability, but although Wally  is a hall of fame coach , I do not remember him winning many multiple or back to back championships. I think this regime is doing it right and rewarding those who have put it all on the line. When the time is right I think they will mostly  move on , on a term that everyone can accept.

    Pig I really like. He adds another dimension to the quarterback game. The game moves faster with him in and he seems to be able to make mostly the right decisions.hWith him involved it is a defensive coordinator nightmare of who to send and when. The RPO absolutely freezes linebackers and as long as he can keep making those right quick decisions something good and positive yardage will happen. I’m going to be excited to see what he can do in live action during a regular season game. He may not yet be the second coming of a Doug Flutie, but I’m betting he will be close. It’s going to be an exciting time following his journey, I’m betting on the Pig!
