Facing the Chargers, Steelers, 49ers, Broncos, Jags, and Pats with a 1st time QB is going to be tough. You guys might laugh at the 49ers but Jimmy G is a stud QB, that could be a shoot out easy. There isn't one easy game in there early to give the young QB some confidence. He will have to press to compete which means lots of overthrows into safety's hands.

I think the chef O will keep them in games, especially if Andy remembers he has Hunt on the team. I also think the chef O will lose them games due to turnovers, especially early in the season but I bet Andy keeps up with the dink and dunk crap to get teams to inch up and then take a couple deep shots a game. I still think MaAheomes throws 3 times the turnovers alice did more if Andy unleashes him and lets him throw down field.

The D is going to be worse than last year. Even if Fuller turns into an above average starter there is still a big drop off from Peters and who is going to play 2nd and 3rd string, the same bums who did nothing when Peters was around? I don't see the D forcing turnovers with Peters and DJ gone.

Gruden has signed some head scratchers in FA, DJ is a shadow of what he was before his injury. It will be interesting to see if the game has passed Gruden by.

The Chargers look loaded on paper but Rivers has cost them more games than he has won them recently. Lynn seems to be a smart coach who wants to pound the ball on the ground. They probably win 11 games if Rivers stays healthy. If they sweep kFc then they will be the favorite to win the division.

I like the Broncos chances talent wise, the coaching staff hasn't engendered a lot of faith though. If Butt and the rookie at TE pan out and Freeman does half of what people expect of him we will have upgraded across the board minus CB maybe. Talib may be missed but he was burnt more than he used to be last year especially as the year went on and Roby has been ready to start for a long time. The pass rush should help the secondary out anyway. If they stay healthy and VJ and Musgrave can give the O an idenitity we can challenge for the division.
Beginning to think you actually did write it
