Expectations for Griff and the 2012 Offense

[HailGreen28]

I'm not optimistic about this season. 5-11.

Griffin plays well, but a few bonehead throws make us think Rex Grossman is a bad influence on him. He still puts up almost Cam-Newton-like numbers, till he's hurt halfway through the season.

Shanny and Allen continues to build the team, though not having our own first round pick the next two seasons hurts. Griffin will become the best QB in the NFCE soon, especially as the other guys get old, and we really start to win in 2013 and onwards.

That's what I'm expecting. I hope to be pleasantly surprised this season.

Other than all those picks we gave up recently, I think Mike Shanahan's been building this team the right way. And if anybody could be trusted nowadays to make such a gamble on a guy like Griffin, it's Shanny.
