Will we compete for a Superbowl next year?

Originally posted by facestabber:
I am excited and have hope once again. The Tomsula hire was just depressing. I had zero faith in him. I think 2018 will be a growing season for us. Beating Seattle would be a great hurdle to overcome.

That hiring made Rich Kotite laugh. Talk about punting a season.
Yes

Things happen fast in today's NFL. If I am Shanalynch, i'm going all in on SB53 and SB54, then I would retool to make runs at SB55 thru SB59.

Getting best FA O-linemen I can buy

Getting best FA CB's and a PR I can buy

Getting FA middle linebacker(s)

drafting a play making WR and RB that is ready to rock

drafting another middle LB

Win two SB's clean out the old, bring in the new and win some more SB's
Well for the last 4 yrs we were miserable. Now we aren't. Sure we could win it all, but with so young a team, that would be a stretch. Still we are in the conversation, and that is what matters. Plus we will be fun to watch for the first time in ages.

This is a process. However, the process has been greatly expedited with the Jimmy G trade. But they still have a s**t load of holes to fill. Arrow up!

If Jimmy is Tom 2.0, it would be nice to have a decade of dominance like the Pat's had with Tom, and add another couple of Lombardie's in the trophy case. The 5 that are there already have a lot of dust on them, need some new ones.

We're not winning anything until we have a top tier OL.

Agree, Big Time.

We're still thin in some critical areas.

IMO, this FA period is a big step and will set up the draft.

I'd like us to pick up Sitton [sp?] FA from Bears to bolster the OLine and FA Butler-CB from Pats.

Two guys who are experienced and plug & play.

There are more FA we could get but I think we can get them in the draft.

The only answer to this question is yes due to the fact that as soon as the season starts all 32 teams are competing for the Super Bowl. You need to structure your question a hell of a lot better then that.

Actually it's 31 teams. The browns just play for formality sake.

We would have to Ace the Free agency period and Ace the draft in order to be taken as serious contenders ohh most importantly DO NOT RESIGN

You need a decent pass rush and an ability to run block at an adequate level in the ZBS. Then I can start talking about playoffs.
