Again this year, I don't see any clear and obvious losses, but they undoubtedly will stumble 3 or 4 times, especially with the young QB(s) and Barry coaching the D. The team is loaded, though.

I picked 13 -4 as well.
Some key assumptions
1) qb doesn't break his thumb
2) qb doesn't put talented wr in dog house if they drop a ball
3) ol needs to maintain blocks for less time, plus it is improved
3) hype of d from last year materializes this year
4) Amari Rodgers gone and full year Nixon
5) bak Gary and stokes return to form after injuries.
This is a great schedule.

It's amazing to me that people talk like 10-7 is somehow optimistic.
If it was Rodgers this year, I'd be predicting 15-2 or 16-1. Injuries, of course, ruined last season. As Upnorth said, a great year is contingent on not having that many injuries again. Of course, there's always the Barry factor that could drag things down, but you would think maybe we have so much talent on the D that even he can't fuck it up too bad.
I would think Stokes would eventually get back to 100%, and with Douglas, Valentine, etc. to pair with Alexander, they can take their time with him.
