Cards will have 3 1k yard receivers: MHJ, McBride and Wilson.

Murray gets 4k passing and 500 rushing and is an All Pro selection.

MHJ is OROY

Conner get 1k rushing again and Carter & Benson combine for 800 more.

Dortch will return a punt for a TD and make the Pro Bowl as a returner.

Cards offense will flirt with 7k total yards combined in 2024.

If all that happens Murray will be MVP and Gannon coach of the year. Because that will be the #1 or 2 offense in the NFL.

That would have been first in the NFL last year. By 150 yards.
Cards had just over 5500 yards last year with a poop roster, new system and Murray missing 1/2 the season.

With Murray last year and the same poop roster and new system, they averaged 363 yards per game, which would be 6,171 over 17 games.

It's not exactly wishful thinking that this team with Murray all year, 2nd year in system and improved roster can increase their output by at least 10% which would have them flirting with 7k total yards on offense.

PS: if you just take the final 4 games last year when the offense was just cooking up and down the field, they averaged 414 yards per game on offense (including the stinker in Chicago with 306 yards), which would have been good for 7,038 over 17 games.

In my mind they had a real chance to beat the Bears at the end of that game.

Love these, minus the Dorch prediction. Dortch isn't going to be the returner next year, that is DeeJay now. Dortch, as it currently stands, is #3 and you can't have a player in that role returning kicks. DeeJay's return numbers are nearly identical to Dorch too.

Weaver outperforms Palmer
Melton starts opposite Williams
Clark doesn’t make the team
Robinson has 7+ sacks
Benson comes close to matching his college production in year one due to Connor missing games

Top five offense

Top fifteen defense.

Clinch the last wildcard spot in the final week of the regular season (Murray gets the "can't-win-a-must-win-game" monkey off his back).
Is that a monkey now? One playoff game without Hopkins and a crap OL?

Even if that was his fault, what are the other must win games? So long ago I can’t remember

He/we had about 4 consecutive games that were win and you're in..we lost them all...a couple were to win the division too iirc.
We backed into the playoffs. The benefit of other teams resting their starters after they clinched

Sigh... I mean people like @Stout make a bigger deal out of it than it really is, but even me, his biggest fan, has to admit that it's been a little bit of thing for him in the pros.

In 2020 and 2021 we lost several games that would have either clinched a playoff berth or like the #1 seed or something similar.

But just between you and me I put a bunch of it on KK and the rotten culture under Keim.
