This team looks like the good ol days when we had one of the best drafts in franchise history, 2 talented backs, a blossoming defense with actual leaders and a young and powerful offensive line.

The offensive line inspired power runs by mark today reminds me of Deuce running against the Eagles both games that year. Kamara looks like a more talented Reggie and look at that young and talented defense... Everyone says the true dominance will be in two years when those supremely talented rookies become young dominant vets.

I am not saying we will make it to the NFC championship game but those cant just be coincidences. I am sure others may find other statistical or anecdotal evidence but either way our last 2 drafts dominate this team like the 05 draft shaped the 09 campaign.

Loved that 06 team but i think this one is a lot more talented overall

I don't disagree at all. Especially at overall skill positions and absolutely on defense.

Just miss the days of deuce/Reggie. That year was special.

I think this team is better. The defense isn't a bend but don't break defense dependant on turnovers. The run game is better. We don't have the passing game of previous years but it's still good.
