I think we have the talent, potential and schedule to get to 10 wins, win the West, and possibly make a solid game of the BIG championship. We win that who knows, maybe playoffs.
However, like many have said their are so many unknowns, will the D make significant enough improvements (pass rush, take aways, 3rd down stops, run stop), can Martinez stay healthy the whole year, will a few WR break out, will the O-line be any good?
On top of the unknowns it is hard to not fall into the, "here we go again" mode. It has been a long painful 15+ years of hype and disappointment.
I believe in Frost and I have little to no doubt he will eventually get us back to where we want to be.
Year 2 is probably to soon to realistically think playoff or even BIG title.
So my 100% honest prediction is 7 -9 wins 50/50 shot to win the West.
Although if Iowa or another fan base asks me, " easily west champs, 10 wins, with a realistic shot at the BIG"
Better?
