[QUOTE=DaneMcCloud;9832003]Well, number one is that we have yet to see this team perform on the field. Why would anyone expect a Super Bowl appearance without seeing the product itself?
I think there's enough talent and coaching on this squad to realistically predict a playoff win in the next few years. But Super Bowls require an incredible amount of luck, not only from your team, but from the misfortune of others.
A consistent contender is more realistic, IMO, than being a lock for a Super Bowl.
I agree with this , actually I think Cassel ,Crennel and Pioli being replaced with Reid ,Smith and Dorsey gives this team a chance this year to make a playoff run. In 2014 we will have a LOT of players in their prime that are probowl level players and we should really make some noise for the foreseeable future. Windows don't close if you know how to draft and Dorsey / Reid have a good history for that.
I get excited every year at this time but I have a little gut feeling this may be the transition year that will bring us back to having a fun team to watch.
