I do not think 10-6 is going to get us into the playoffs.

Yes and the other factor is injuries. I'm assuming my win number based on a healthy a squad. It could be worse; we have the third worst schedule in the league this year.

As the good book says, "Iron sharpens iron." I'd rather be challenged by the best and become excellent than to work against the average and hope to become above-average.

Fortunes, teams turn around on a dime every season - rate the schedule when the season is over...
