Are we still on our way to a 7-9 season?

If we lose to Detroit, I think that's followed up with another loss to Green Bay, which makes us 2-4 and I think we're back to the drawing board and at best an 8-8 season.

So let's just say the Detroit game is paramount. We must find a way to win, and it won't be easy.

My prediction is that we will beat Detroit and then lose to Green Bay (although a very competitive game that keeps the momentum going). Then the next 6 are the easiest and I got us at 4-2 or 5-1. That's either 7-5 or 8-4.

Then the rough stretch of Atlanta twice and Tampa at home to go along with cupcake NY Jets. So we again have to find a way to split with Atlanta if we're going to make the playoffs. I think the Tampa game will be for that last wild card spot between the two teams.

Yes, being over .500 for the first time since like forever would be good.

Not so fast. That Bills - Skins - Rams stretch is looking to be murderous. Those teams are playing well, and 2 of those are on the road.
