I'll play.
My predictions…
1. 12-5: Too high in my opintion. 10-7 with a WC berth. From there, anything can happen.
2. Joey B has an MVP type of year. Not predicting one but certainly in the discussion: I'll raise it further. I'm expecting this to happen. We pay him to be this guy and he has a great situation with the offense. He better make it work.
3. Tee Higgins has his best year: Sure.
4. Jamar Chase has a solid year: Sure
5. Orlando Brown has his best year: I'll take the safer bet and say he does worse, but only slightly worse; which is still better play than what we've gotten at LT before we signed him
6. The OL is top 15 in PFF: Top 20. Marginal improvement overall, but improved play at RT and RG in particular.
7. Mike Gesicki after a slow start comes on strong the last half of the season: Why would he have a slow start?
8. The offense has its best yards per play number in Taylor’s career: In the second half, maybe; but I think there are too many new pieces for us to be popping off right out the gate
9. Our linebackers carry the defense: Fair
10. Myles Murphy emerges: Most overhyped dude on the team. At this point, I hope he pops off for the board's sake.
11. Baltimore and Cincy play in the AFC Championship (Cincy wins KC injury luck runs out): Baltimore has an uphill battle with turnover on the defensive side of the ball. I don't see them getting past KC, Houston, or any sleeper team. Cincy vs KC part 3 or Cincy vs Houston sounds more likely.
12. SF vs Cincy in SB: Nope. The NFC champions will be the Atlanta Falcons, Green Bay Packers, or Dallas Cowboys.. I'll die on this hill.
13. Isovias, Irwin, and Burton have a fierce battle as #3 receiver: Yup.
14. The right side of the line finally elevates us to success in goal line and short yardage: See above
15. The defense is average but opportunistic with turnovers and we lead the league in TO margin: The likelihood of the defense being worse than it was last year is more likely than you think.
