WR1- Moss with 600 receiving yards.
WR2- Porter with 500 receiving yards.
WR3- Gabriel & Curry with 300 combined receiving yards.
TE- Anderson with 100 receiving yards.
HB- Jordan with 1000 rushing yards.

DBs will have a combined total of 10 INTs.
Defense will have a combined total of 10 sacks.

Fantasy. Now, reality:

QB- Brooks will have 1000 yards passing, and 250 yards rushing.
WR1- Moss will have 500 yards receiving.
WR2- Gabriel will have 350 yards receiving.
WR3 & TE- Curry and Anderson will combine for 150 yards receiving.
HB- Jordan will still have 1000 yards rushing.

DBs will have around 4 or 5 INTs
Defense will have 10 sacks still tho.

Obviously, I'm hoping the first scenario will happen. But if it's the second, I won't be bitching. BTW, I don't have Porter benched, I have him traded, if he plays poorly. (Unless he has a no trade clause, which he might. Al still may trade him and take the $$$$ hit, but he'd probably bench him.)
The first scenario is not too far fetched. I think we both know that porter is capable of those types of numbers but, He's too jacked up in the brain to focus on his job. I expect to see moss around that number.

The second scenario is about right. I think the TE position will play a much larger role though. Remember Ethan Horton under Shell. Shell likes to hit the TE. I'm excited about the Defensive Backfield. I don't think 8 int's are out of the question. I think that some teams will try to challenge our DB's because of youth.
