Can we get to 9-8?

[Randolph Panther]

If we can beat the Jets this weekend I really think we can go 5-5 and get to 9-8. Not sure if that’s enough for the playoffs but it would be a good step forward.

Slow down kimosabe, one game at a time.

Three weeks ago everyone was trying to burn this place down.

I love seeing my football team win two games in a row but I’m pretty jaded from the Tepper era so I’m just expecting it to all fall apart each week. Much safer. 
 

it’ll be exciting to see if Bryce can get the road monkey off his back and if the run game maintains it’s dominating pace aghast a team that isn’t poo at run D.

Preseason prediction was 6ish wins and this team really looks about like that.  The wins in that 6 were always called to be heavy in this stretch of the schedule. 

we might beat the Jets.  But it’s hard to imagine us doing much down the stretch outside of splitting with the Saints and a random other game

Well, before the season I said something like we could win anywhere from four to 11 games depending how things fell. I also said that seven games was a hard target if I must give one. Three weeks ago, I'd have said we wouldn't win four games, but I still think we're on target to win seven, so I certainly don't think nine is out of the realm of reality. Honestly, it's going to come down to Bryce's development, and the coaches' willingness to adapt in and out of game.

Then, it was dry wood and rotting. Now, it may be salvaged.

I think the team around the QB is better than we thought, it's up to the QB to improve and step up. Watching the all-22, he still missed touchdowns yesterday that would have sastified the CRA-LG crowd. Jimmy Horn should have had a 80 yard TD but Bryce missed it and it was just a 25 yarder instead. Legette was wide open in the endzone several times (not counting the one where the rusher was in Bryce's face, he couldn't make that throw)

The Jets are 23rd in run Defense, giving up 130 yards per game.

Let’s beat the Jets and then we can talk about the rest of the schedule.  If we screw up the Jets game then we’re right back in the shitter.

I think that win vs Dallas gave them a big boost of confidence. 

Thats a team that blew us out the past 2 seasons. Even when Bryce was playing okay late last season they still beat us pretty bad. 

Lets see if we slaughter the Jets or go back to playing sloppy uninspired football and go from there. 

[Admiral Ackbar]

I just dont see it with the schedule. 5-7 wins this season I think it realistic.

Losing to the Jags, Cardinals and Patriots early messed us up. I thought we could get 2 of those games before the season started but it just didnt happen. 

[UnluckyforSome]

I mean, they could run the table. Not probable, but possible. 

[Jon Snow]

Not this season. The die has been cast. Vegas had us at 6.5 wins for the season and after the Jets i cannot see another realistic shot at a win. It would take a lot of people playing much better than they have and a lot of luck staying healthy to touch 8 wins.
