According to Sportrac:
Youngest (Average Age)
1. Browns (25.30) 2. Lions (25.42) 3. Jags (25.57) 4. Cowboys (25.58) 5. Giants (25.58) 6. EAGLES
Oldest (Average Age)
1. Bucs (27.32) 2. Saints (27.25) 3. Pats (27.25) 4. Cards (27.06) 5. Bills (26.92)
17 game season folks.
Fresh, younger, quicker, stronger legs is everything.
Our schedule is cake. I'm predicting 13-4. We're starting off 4-0. Games we may falter (notice I said 'may')
@ Arizona Green Bay Tennessee I'll give one of the Cowboys, Giants, Washington a win (singular - that means we go 5-1 in the division) against us
If you're the Bucs, Pack, Rams - I really wouldn't want to play a fresh younger more spry team who had a cake schedule all year in January after getting beat up all year
Hey I'm just sayin'

Without Tom, Bucs fall to a tie with Buffalo at 26.92.
Iggies should win the division. Sad Jerry.

Great stuff, looks like this’ll be the thread we’ll be bumping all season - thanks for never letting us down, Frogs.

I am going to do all of you a favor.
Take your life savings and bet the over on the Eagles.
401K, Savings, Child's College Piggy Bank - everything
There is no way we are winning under 10 games - especially with how talented we are (I'm like a giddy school girl with our revamped 'D', best O-Line in football, one of the best if not the best receiving corps in the NFL as well as one of the best TEs in the game), the division we play in and our cupcake schedule.
There's literally like a 0.000000001% chance of it happening - Hurtsy and Minshew would have be both lost for the season in like Week 1 for it to happen
Bet the over.
You are welcome.

Is this another Process that we are all supposed to trust?

The Steelers have the same win totals as the Giants and Commanders? And people aren't betting those unders - - they are betting the Steelers under? The same Steelers who won 8 games with Duck Hodges as QB. Skip the middlemen - - I'll take all your action, dopes.

That would be my guess too if it happens - - they are on the road three of four games versus good teams before the break. Let Trubisky handle that and see where you are.

Anything is possible as soon as the games start, to be sure - but the healthy Ravens and Bengals certainly look stronger than the Steelers on paper. I don’t see the AFC North producing 3 8+ win teams, so, which of those first two are going to underwhelm? Looking at their schedule, 7.5 for Pittsburgh seems fair to me.

Why do the Ravens look stronger? Lamar Jackson? He's beaten the Steelers ONCE in his career. It was Duck Hodges he beat. He threw three interceptions in that win. Ravens haven't beaten the Steelers in the last four times they've played each other. He was losing to the corpse of Ben Roethlisberger. Steelers have the better running back, pass catchers, and front seven. Both offensive lines stink. Ravens have the better QB and secondary. Oh, and the AFC North had four eight win plus teams last season - - and they played the AFC West last year.

Marcus Epps is getting a little long in the tooth for not showing a lot in his career - 26
Even though we just traded for CJ - I'd still love to upgrade there....
Upgrade to a 22 year old - and that move right there could put us at the youngest in the league

Oh, and the AFC North had four eight win plus teams last season - - and they played the AFC West last year. I did say if healthy - and assuming they avoid the same Indian burial ground-type injury luck as last year, and assuming those returning players aren’t significantly worse, I feel very confident this Ravens team finishes higher than the Steelers. I mean you only managed one more win than them last year even with that unprecedented level of injuries (both in terms of quantity and quality of players lost/affected). Sure, all teams have injuries, but without even checking I know the Ravens were hit harder than Pittsburgh.

Fresh, younger, quicker, stronger legs is everything. [ I will bet my life savings on those 5 oldest teams having more combined wins than the top 5 from the 6 youngest listed. Maybe even more than all 6 youngest combined. Easy money.
