Re: Expectations for this year?

This time last year we were talking SB, Don't let last year's results deminish your bold optimism. NFC east champs, 12-4 record, home field advantage, and no less than two playoff wins.........Now you see why I hate making predictions.

Re: Expectations for this year?

Yea, i dont really like making predictions either, i really had high hopes last season, and look how that went, so i am hoping for JC to have a good season, and hopefully the D can be a hell of a lot better than last year. Really disappointed me last year.

I have extremely high hopes every season and feel the heartache and depression almost every week. Well, 11 times last year. I just do not understand why a team with this many good players has to stink it up. Im sure Im a bit biased but still, Ill be disappointed if they don't win at least 1 playoff game and Im predicting 11-5. I really do not want to go back to Seattle again.

Re: Expectations for this year?

My expectations are for somewhere between a 2nd Round of the playoffs exit to a 6-10 season. It will all depend on injuries. If we stay healthy i think we can put together a playoff team. If there are any major injuries or a combination of minor injuries we will lose close games again and have a season similar to the last one. We aren't exactly built for success, but complete failure is also a slim possibility

Re: Expectations for this year?

Expectations are premeditated disappointments. I was so hyped for last year, and it broke my heart to watch us stink it up the way we did. So I predict we'll play in 16 regular season games, and the team that scores more points will win.

Haha. Yeah, that makes me imagine a lot of angry posters talking about how we need to get rid of Santana for a 4th round pick and how lost we would have been without comeback player of the year Brandon Lloyd.

Re: Expectations for this year?

With a new QB that teams have already observed for a few games, I would expect the Skins to win 8 plus or minus 2 games.

As always I'll watch and cheer for the Skins ... but there are no real expectations for a super season. I hope they can prove me an unrealistic pessimist.

Re: Expectations for this year?

I think Sean Taylor is going to break the record for most penalties in a season.

Re: Expectations for this year?

Realistically, I think were a 8-8 type team who if we catch fire and mesh well can be very, very good. I just need to wait and see them actually put together that type of a team consistantly before I get on the Super Bowl bandwagon I was on last year.

I've said it before and I think the offseason additions have only added to my opinion that we have a team that is capable of winning the super bowl, but health and JC's development are huge question marks.

That being said, I think the Pats win the super bowl.

8-8 you got to be kidding me you must be from the espn thinking we are going to be in last place. Joe gibbs wont let it get away this season he learned his leson! It's going to be a 11-5 season!

Pats win the SB just because they got randy moss? Now I know your from ESPN!
