I honestly do not think we are far off from making a plyoff run, ONLY because of the Division we play in. The Vikes without Moss & Culpepper are not the same team and may struggle to find an identity, the Pack may very well lose Farve and will undoubtedly take a few years to come around and Da Bears...blah, blah, blah...Didn't they go 13-3 a few years back only to fall flat for a few years, that team does not scare me one bit at all.
As for the Lions, hopefully a comitted Coaching staff and no more Joey can turn this franchise around. I think the D is starting to come around with solid young players like Rogers, Edwards, Bailey, Lehman to name a few. The offense can ONLY IMPROVE with Mad MArtz running the show, just as long as he doesn't get to mange the game or clock we should be OK. I expect KJ to bounce back from a sub-par year as we aquire some O line via FA or the draft. The WR's should improve as well with Martz in the house.
As for a prediction.... 10-6
