Not sure if this will be the year, but it's coming here very soon. The Shehawks are an aging roster with more holes than people realize and their impact players are slipping. The Cards are dependent on a QB whose best days have been behind him now for a while and their roster took some serious hits this offseason.
I don't know how well SF is going to build this thing here in the next few seasons, but they had a draft with a couple big time impact defenders at the top of their draft. Their new GM seemed to have a good feel for how to navigate things and for identifying good players. They have what looks to be a strong staff on offense, and a very clear identity defined for who they are going to be moving forward.
Our Rams have, I think, the biggest improvement in staff overall in one season that I have seen in a long time. Both sides of the ball look very capable, and the question of how quickly or whether they can get Goff on track looms as a big question. I personally think he's got the talent and dedication and it's a matter of time and protection. Also I am not sure the Rams' front office model can sustain high quality picks required to stay on top if they can get there, but those things will come clear here in time.
I suspect this division will be more wide open this season than anyone expects. Not saying the Rams will rise this season, but it is possible if the QB position sees significant improvement and their defense makes a move to well within top 10 in scoring. Both things are possible, so while some will accuse me of kool-aid drinking here I will say we do have a chance albeit slim to have a memorable season.
So I don't know about you dudes, but I'm pumped up for this year. Can't wait for camp.
