ok let's say Bradford stays healthy for the entire season (honestly how much bad luck can the guy have left) and we reinforce 2 or 3 on the offensive line plus resigning our top needs. With a healthy Sam and hopefully a top 10-15 Oline ranking how do you all see the 2015 season ending up especially with the defense playing at a top 5-10 level that we know is possible. If Bradford stays upright at least 12-16 games I would be inclined to say a playoff birth. and with another year under Williams and all the young players having a year under their belts, how far do you think this team could go?

be realistic, as if you had $100 riding on it. I'm curious here. And in my opinion I'll be optimistic and say Cignetti could do better than Schotty (the bar is set low anyways).
 
If I was betting 100$ and I knew Bradford would stay healthy? I would comfortably bet a playoff berth. Our defense is too good, and our offense gave away plenty of games last year that Bradford simply would not.

10 win season. Health is always a major factor for every team. I remember a Colts team post Manning and pre Luck that sucked pretty badly.

BTW, turnovers are the second biggest factor and one Sam manages well.

I look at it this way. We finished 6-10 but we all know we left 3-4 wins easily on the table.. Bad QB play, officiating, you name it.
Maybe it's a big "IF" but only a few things have to go right from us having a 10 win season with mediocre QB play.

Now, if Sam comes back, stays healthy and we shore up the OL. No reason we can't win 10-12 games next year.

And yes, I believe that.

Due to constantly being let down with my pre-season projections, I'm slowly becoming this guy.

Which is good; because then if they surprise me and surpass my expectations, I can become this guy:

That he does.
A little too well at times.
Sometimes I wish he would take more chances. He has a great arm.
I saw him doing it in preseason. There was an upswing in his confidence with his receivers.

I believe we have 3 more wins if our defense starts fast last season.
Same qb and oline play.
 
I know the topic is IF we stay healthy... but we all know that ain't happening.

So, my first thought is... as I look at the offensive side of the ball, we have very little depth... I am concerned.

Other random thoughts:
* On defense, we have depth in most positions, but I worry about coming out of the gates slowly again. I don't think we will... but it has me a tad concerned based on history.
* New OC and QB coach. Not saying they won't/can't kick it up a notch from Schottenheimer, but the unknown of it worries me some.

To sum it up....
* IF we stay healthy (especially on offense)
* IF we get off to a strong start on defense
* IF Cignetti and Weinke prove themselves capable of elevating the offense to - say 21 PPG.

THEN, the sky's the limit.

Lots to happen yet... free agency... draft.. maybe a trade or two... who knows?
