I believe you are underestimating Cadillac. I could easily see him getting 1137 yards. Or maybe even 1138.

I'd say you probably nailed it with Brown, though. Possibly another five or six receiving yards, but the rushing yards look right to me.

How is Brown gonna pile up the stats when opposing defenses don't have to be honest. Miami has NOTHING at QB or WR.

Chambers, Booker and McMichael are all Pro Bowl quality and will all have much better seasons with a legitamite running threat...Feeley will benefit a lot as well. they basically had to throw all the time last season with the hole at RB, and Brown is a very capable receiver and could possibly split out wide when Kay Jay Harris is in the backfield.

I'll give you the receivers eventhough "pro bowl quality" is a very generous label - BUT Feeley's the second coming of Scott Mitchell. Surround him with all the talent you want - that dude sucks donkey balls.

Pac Man 85 tacks? pllleaaaaaseee. I think you're over predicting the rookie WRs by a lot. 14, 13, and 12 tds? HeckI can think of some pro-bowlers who are going to have trouble getting that many..

Cedric Benson will have the best rookie season of the first round running backs. He is going to a team that will not be able to pass was well and when it gets cold in Chicago he will have tons of carries. I don't know if he will be better for his career but this year he should.

those are VERY generous predictions.

maybe the only one that is close is campbell. and actually, i could see him getting more playing time than that. gibbs has no idea what he wants to do at the QB position.

as for pac-man, i'm a titans fan... and no way he gets 85 tackles. he'll get run over 85 times, maybe 15% of those will result in the offensive player getting tripped up.

and 12 TDs for Jones? wow. just... wow. i like the guy, but he is a big IF.
