It's very possible, probable even, that we as fans over rate our own players as we've apparently been doing for the past 9 seasons.  I've heard this 10+ win projection every off season.  I've even participated in it some in years past.  We're still dealing with a lot of unknowns at this point in time and this projection is likely going to rely on some heavy contributions by rookies which historically you can't count on.  I do think a healthy Fournette gets 1200+ rushing yards and I do think we win more games because of it, but 12 wins could have us vying for a playoff bye and that just seems a little lofty to me at this point given where we were just last December.

 

Let's get through mini-camp, training camp and pre-season unscathed first.  This rush to proclaim 10, 11, 12 wins in May hasn't worked out so well for those who've done it in the past.
