I see them not being able to replace Collins effectively yet this year. I see Woodson dropping off dramatically. I see Hawk as even more horrible than last year - that could end up being good, once they finally give up on him and get someone competent in pass coverage in there, and the loss of Bishop will be tough to overcome. D-line play and corner play overall should be somewhat better, so the Defense should be improved maybe to middle of the pack.
Can the offense maintain what it had last year? Probably not. Expect some slippage due to rocky lineplay at center and LT, and slippage at WR with Driver slowing and Jennings thinking of his contract. Will Finley emerge or tease and continue his phantom blocking?
But a slight reduction in offense and a slight improvement on defense should leave them about the same. Take away some of those close wins, and you get 11 or 12 wins.
Of course, if Outhouse and Saturday allow Rodgers to get killed, then the whole thing will disintegrate.
