On the poll I picked 5-8 but I think 9 wins is attainable if things fall right health wise and development (RG3, Keenan Robinson, Amerson) wise. I don't see this as a double digit loss team if all the key players are healthy. Can't wait until kickoff!

I didnt think I was twisting the truth. The thread asked for my prediction and I gave it and I thought I was being an optimist. The only way this team is better than last year is if RG plays better (which I think he will) and why I think they will double last year's win total.

Stating the only way we get better is with rg3 plays better is a little short sighted. Special teams, front 7, and the Oline need and will be better. I'm not going into the season thinking about the performance of the qb.

On this team the QB is the straw that stirs the drink. Without him playing well they dont win much at all.

We will never lose again!

This is true. And the pass rush had better be the straw for the defense alone.

People constantly overrate the importance of QB's in the NFL. Teams do that too with the outrageous money they spend on them.

Thats because in todays NFL, to win a SB, you usually need one of two things. A great defense or a great QB. 11 players for defense or 1 player for QB. Teams usually try for the 1 player over 11 players.

Well I believe the qb position is the most important on the field, but I wouldn't sell rg3 short. Of course he needs to play well, but I don't put a lot stock in rg3 performance last year. He was injuried, played with an interior Oline that was a mess pass protecting, and had a bad relation with a pos, distance head coach. Let's not forget rg3 and the offense was constantly put in bad positions by a largely ineffective defense and a special teams unit that was historically bad. I'm more concerned with the Oline overall and Jordan reed's health on the offense.

I'm not making any predictions until I see them play, hopeful but being realistic
