Ive thought all along this was a 6ish win team.  Now I am not so sure we can even get that

I was thinking 8 was realistic.  That was unrealistic given our brain trust.

Truth is, on offense we look just as unprepared for the week's opponents as we did last year.  That was part of what got me to check out on Rhule last year.  I can handle losing, but I can't handle being completely inept. 

The defense looks better, but they are not good enough to pull a 1976 Steelers and carry a team to wins by stymieing to single-digits week after week.  They are practically outscoring the offense, though.  And if somebody pulls out the offensive scores against prevent defenses, the defense may be outscoring them.

Moral on D is about take a nose dive with the way the O is playing. Blowouts are coming soon.

6 wins would shock at this point but somehow we are going to get a few wins here and there and actually make Tepper think twice about canning our unqualified for the NFL coach I fear.

I thought that before the season started.  But now getting 5 wins seems to much to expect from this team.

We’ll get just enough to not get one of the top QBs.

Well, if we got to 5 wins we would hit Rhule's average seasonal wins so I wouldn't count it out yet. We are going to get lucky on about 2-4 more I think. Your five wins may turn out to be right on the money. Doesn't look like they could do it if they play like yesterday but I bet we beat the saints again, get at least one from the falcons and then end of season we squeak out another 1 or two wins from actual good teams with real NFL coaches who may be resting some key players for the playoffs

Unfortunately, 3-1 was in the cards if not for the Rhule Tax.
