Man, we've got some playmakers on offense...something we haven't had since the glory days of Brunell, Fred, Jimmy, and Keenan. In 2007, Garrard was good and Mojo was fantastic, but we still didn't have the weapons we have now...and I haven't even mentioned Yeldon and Julius Thomas.


We don't need to completely overhaul our defense. With Fowler, Marks, and Telvin and another good linebacker and pass rusher, we could have a dominant front seven. That's the key to Carolina's defense--their cornerbacks are nothing special.


Add those key pieces, keep everyone healthy, and we can make the playoffs.

 

I agree.   I think most people on this message board are way too pessimistic.    This roster is so much better than it has been in the last 5 years or so.   The coaching?    I'm on the fence about that.   On the other hand, I have always believed that almost any NFL coach can make the playoffs if you give them a good roster of players.
