What's a successful season?

  1. 1. What's a successful season? Sorting this by what would be an improvement over 2021 record.

    • 6-7 wins, no playoffs but team seems improved
      2
    • 8-9 wins, no playoffs, team is noticeably improved (I.E. Baker is promising)
      8
    • 8-9 wins, last wildcard
      24
    • 10+ wins, playoff berth
      20
    • Record schmecord, we need a playoff appearance and playoff win
      8

A winning season (lol) would be progress. Rhule Tax means another 5-or-less-win season is coming.

Rhule negates our winning potential by 2-3 games however it ultimately works out. Hopefully we have an interim head coach by week 5 and make a run for entertainment sake

Making the playoffs

You can clamor for a playoff win all you want but the same people demanding a playoff win also have the Panthers as a 6 win team.

You can't scream we want wins and make the playoffs and be mad that we made the playoffs and not win.

Baby steps....now do we make the playoffs? Thats another discussion.

So you want to make the playoffs but don’t mind if we get curb stomped and exit immediately? That sounds like acceptance of mediocrity and being content just looking good. Not my cup of tea. Especially in the NFL where there is parody and not this slow build process being alluded to. We looked better in their first year, last year regressed and underperformed. They need to outperform expectations. Simple as that.

Given what we preached about Rhule's track record of third year jumps,  I think 10+ wins and a playoff berth are necessary to be "successful."

Ideally a win in the playoffs to establish with complete certainty that we have had a monumental jump to being a success again.

Either less than 10 wins OR less than 1 playoff win have to be failures, IMO. If you want to keep selling further improvement and the future being bright, you have to show something more than 0-9 wins and no playoffs.

It only matters to Tepper, unfortunately.  The man does not like to be wrong so a floor of 9 wins (wildcard or not) is enough for Rhule to stick around another season.  It will be hard to Tepper to justify keeping Rhule if our record is only better by 2-3 games especially if the team stays relatively healthy.  The IR excuse has been leaned on heavily the past two seasons.

      Fvck Bryce Young

      Idk man, I think it’s necessary.  There’s people working 9-5s everyday that get told poo about what they aren’t and what they’re not capable of and they’re working for scraps.  These guys are making millions.  People are watching and invested because their team and fandom is a part of their identity and a big source of pride.  When someone like Bryce comes in and is given chance after chance after chance after proving he is not worthy of the position he’s being gifted, and he continues to be the biggest reason above any that we are losing, yeah…  I think it’s fair to call a spade a spade.  Am I saying Bryce the person is trash?  Bryce the person is a piece of poo?  Absolutely not.     I came up in an era, especially in basketball, where if you were fuging up people heckled the poo out of you.  I played in rec leagues as a teen where the fuging parents were calling kids trash and yelling poo like “TURNOVER!!!  TURNOVER!!!”  “CANT DRIBBLE!”  “CANT SHOOT!”  And that’s adults screaming that poo to kids like we were in the fuging Rucker lol.🤣🤣🤣  I went on to play basketball at a collegiate level and with professional players in different settings.  What those experiences as a kid taught me was to see if there is any merit to what people are saying, and if there is, then work my ass off til they can’t say that anymore.  Come back better, tougher, harder.  And I did.  If kids can figure that poo out, an adult calling another adult who is bad at his job while making millions and millions of dollars will be just fine.

      I'm 43.... I've lived half my life if I am lucky... will we ever have another team that we will fall in love with?!?

      I have tried to like this team, lord knows I have tried. BY9 is a nice young man, if I had a daughter he can take her to prom, but he ain't QB1 and he's not Cam or Delhomme Chuba is a average RB, he isn't Stephen Davis, he isn't J-Stew McMillan has the makings of a good WR, but he isn't 89/Moose D. Brown is a great player, but if the game was on the line I want Kris Jenkins       I miss this brand of football, even in the bad Jake games the games were entertaining It has been nearly 8 years now of watching numb football

      I’m not sure people understand how fuging bad it is

      I'm not so sure. Something about the whole Frank/Bryce situation seemed off from day 1. Bryce didn't fit Frank's QB mold as well as Stroud, then he basically gives up when Bryce is named starter in preseason but gets virtually no reps in games. Then he looks completely unprepared and Dalton steps in in Seattle, has a decent game under immense pressure, and it's right back to Bryce. All his mechanics are terrible and he's having the worst rookie season ever and Frank doesn't bench him?  You dont have to be a conspiracy theorist to know Bryce wasn't ready to be a day 1 starter. Everything with Bryce, then coaches, and the FO seemed forced.
