prediction (anyone)

i predict well have at least double the amount of wins we had last year
 
U can't predict till after FA n' Draft.
 
Maybe 7 wins and 9 losses. Parcells may assemble enough talent to accomplish this but there is just too many needs to address all of them in such a short time. We have to be patient though and look for small improvements here and there rather than a miracle turnaround.
 
yea, I think I'll wait til we have a team.

ya exactly. Right now we dont even qualify for a College ranks. I bet anythign we woudl have lost to LSU
 
5-11

Which is respectable for a first year coach taking over a complete disaster that was 1-15 last year. Especially after losing some solid veterans like Keith Traylor and a leader in Zach Thomas.

The good thing about being 1-15 is you're already at rock bottom. There is a WHOLE HEAP of room for Improvement, and basically you cant get any worse. Not that i'd be happy with 2-14 next year, but 5-11 i think would be ok. Especially if we're still playing tough in games like we did last year (the whole 8 losses by 10 points or less or whatever it was).
 
Right now I think we are a 4 or 5 win team but after spending the 40 plus million we have and the best draft we ever had we could have a winning record, you can really turn around a team in free agency and drafts look at the Saints! Panthers and Falcons, Rams etc.. they all did it!

Unless we have a draft comparable to the New York Giants, where 7-8 rookies step in and all make solid contributions, it's going to be tough. Last years draft for the Dolphins turned out a little like that, a lot of rookies saw considerable playing time, but injuries and poor management couldn't make it work. I personally dont see anything in free agency that signals "immediate turn around", as i look for the further development of players we drafted to do that. It's going to take at least a season of losing before this team starts winning.
 
Space Mountain 16 that could be very true and I understand that but maybe we do have some players on this team that can play alot better than they did last year , like just for example DE Rodrique Wright, he came on strong last year, he's finally healthy and with this new system , he could take it to the next level, Ginn is going to get better in time, he looked alot better in the end of the season, it takes recievers time to develop, our O-line actually looked good until the injuries came, you really never know, we lost alot of games by 3 points too, who knows if we win half or all those games under this regime, it's going to be interesting.
 
Too early to predict, I predicted 5-11 last year and Cameron proceeded to coach down a 5-11 team down to a 1-15 team. We were bad last year but there is no way our initial talent was this bad except for a coach losing a team from day one.
