Somehow I don't think we are done

I see us beating the Bears, Bills, Jets, Rams and maybe the Redskins and even beating these teams we would still have to win another 3 just to break even and while that could happen it probably won't get us into the playoffs but get us a draft pick that we always get, middle of the road.

I don't know what will happen, but let's just say we split with the division, 3-3, that gives us 5 losses. GB with any form of healthier line will light us up like a christmas tree. 6 losses. Do we really think we will not lose another to either the Lions, Skins, or Rams?

That's 7 losses. I suspect we are swept badly by the Falcons, possibly swept by bucs, maybe 4 losses instead of 3. that would equate to 8-8. We might lose in November up in Buffalo. It could get ugly, but best case scenario to me would be 9-7 and I really don't have faith that will happen.

By how we are playing now my guess would point to 6-10 or 7-9

That and the fact that we're 0-2 are the only facts to this point in the season!

Exactly. Look, those first two games smell of some real bad North Korean Kimchi...

But, we're not out of this and have the pieces to get it turned around, and get healthy...

Not to mention I have that $20 Saints to win the title ticket from Bally's in Vegas in my safe.

70-1, Baby!

We can win the next 2 games and should win the next 2 games. Streif comes back and Snead...huge.

Armstead should be getting close to a return, as well.

Sounds like someone is in denial. I saw nothing that tells me this can be fixed with the current coaching & GM status. The offense looks flat & the defense has given up over 1,000 yards in 2 games.

What if....we go from 0-2 to 2-2 and finish 12-4? I know I know, pipe dream but it's what I have to hope for this week. lol

I think that is very possible, Bus.
