4th Quarter Season predictions

Additionally, I really have to question the hiring of Jim Zorn. Nice guy, but I just don't see him emerging as a top coach in this league.

Suggestion: Let go of some of the reigns, Mr. Snyder. Go out and hire Bill Cowher after the season, hire a GM, get Jason Campbell a big target wide receiver (infuse Thomas and Kelly little by little), re-build the O-line, and get a stud pass rushing DE.
If he (i.e Zorn) is willing keep him as a Quarterbacks Coach.
This would be a MAJOR step in the right direction.

Extreme optimism is seriously lacking on this fan site. Someone needs to do it

Hey why not? It's not like we haven't seen this team rattle off big winning streaks to finish off the season before.

Yes, let's just start all over again with another coach which means another system, new personnel, etc.

Brilliant.

I've been picking us as a 10 win team and Im comfortable with that. 3-1. We may beat baltimore this weekend almost as a statement game, but I wouldn't bet the house on it. I see us winning the rest, though. Philly be damned if we're up against the ropes.

2-2. I think we lose to Baltimore and Philly.

I'm typically ultra-optimistic but I just don't see it now.


I'll go 2-2 as well, heres hoping its better.... I just dont think this team has a run in them like they did in 05' and 07....but I was pretty pesamistic those years two, so who knows...I thinks we beat Cinci/SF, lose to Bal/Philly and miss the playoffs. Huge dissapointement...I'm praying I'm wrong. If we can find a way to beat Baltimore, I'll really start to turn the corner and be optomistic, but I just dont know how....I guess the only thing I'll hang my hat on is...we haven't lost on the road since opening Thursday night, and although I think we played poorly against Detroit & Seattle, we still have looked better than at home.....

I guess I really wouldnt be shocked with any of those four records. I could see us beating Baltimore this weekend, but I also could have seen us beating NYG last weekend, and that argument of a "feeling" only holds water for so long.

Overall, 2-2, 9-7 is my prediction. Hoping I'm wrong, assuming I'll be right.

Its really just that simple!

I went 2-2 losses against the Ravens and Philly...it knocks us out of the playoff picture early...this could benefit us...because then we could try to inject Thomas, Kelly and our new TE (I actually forgot his name)....I would also activate our rookie Guard and get his butt and Heyer on the line for the last 2 games too.

I'd bench Portis and Moss for the last 2 games so they dont break....why not?
You know if they keep them in there is no way they will throw to any of these rookies...EVER.

Also, have Devin Thomas return some punts.

Brilliant.I think you just have to admire the posters assertiveness. I mean, not only does he suggest that Zorn will likely never be a great coach, but then he suggests that we replace him with a man that through 15 seasons was only able to prove that he could survive in the very most stable situation in the NFL.

I mean, to think that Cowher has a rats chance in hell of lasting two years in Washington, you've got to respect someone with those type of cajones!

They are all winnable. We settle down a little, get back to basics, Kelly steps up, Thomas wants another TD, and go 3-1.

3-1 do we hold a tie breaker over dallas???? if they finish 10-6 too
