We still have the majority of the same players but who are learning a new system so why would we think this team is good enough to make the playoffs coming out of the NFC East. If we were in the NFC West then we may have a good chance to make the playoffs. Let's just sit back and watch this team play hard every week and keep the games close. We just don't have enough play makers on both sides of the ball right now. Our D-Line has mostly back ups who should not be starters but because we don't have better talent we have to live with Daniels, Carriker, Kemo and Golston as starters. Our Linebackers are undersized and slow but they do play hard every game. London is a baller but he is getting up in age. Brian Orakpo just can not make enough plays because teams and focus on him, due to no other threat on the D-Line. AH does not play enough to make a difference he needs to be traded next season if he only plays on passing downs. I'm going to continue watching the games but not expect much this season < I suggest you do the same so when we lose you wont be so pissed off.

I've been a fan for just about as long as you have. I think what frustrates the smart fans is that this team never seems to have a true plan in place. And when I see us trade away the future for older guys that are past their primes, or bring in older guys via FA it just seems like a band aid approach. I've said this before and I'll say it again but I don't mind playing all young guys and living with their mistakes for a few years cause I know that's the only real way we're ever going to build a true winner for many years. That might also mean bringing in a younger coach like Raheem Morris but so be it. This win now approach has won us two playoff games in 12 years. And I don't really count 99 cause Casserly put that team together. Enough!!!!
