Down time things to talk/think about.

So many players have to learn a new scheme, new teammates, everything. We're going to have a lot of mistakes. That said, we have our fair share of athleticism and leadership.

So to me we could be anywhere from 6-10 to 10-6, with small margins of victory/loss every time. I see hope for the playoffs, but I wouldn't consider it a failure if we miss.

Be careful WAY out there on that limb. So you're saying that we will play 16 games, win some, lose some, you'll be happy if we win most but not disappointed if we don't. Seems Zornishly medium!

Haha...ouch. Go easy on him...right now, there's predictions ranging from 5-11 to 10-6 on this team so we are at a point where the best prediction about this team is that they are difficult to predict.

I'm not interested in making an accurate prediction on Wins and Losses, because the reality is there is a very fine line between winning and losing in the NFL. That's why every year you see teams go from 5-11 or 6-10 to 10-6 or 11-5 and into the playoffs. Just a few changes here and there, a few breaks go your way, a healthy player here or there where there was an injury the year before... that's all it takes to have a somewhat successful season.

I can say I'm pretty confident we're not among the elite in the NFL yet. I can say pretty confidently that we're not horrible like we were under Vinny & Zorn. From there, it's anybody's guess on which side of mediocre we finish. Instead of trying to predict, just enjoy the uncertainty that is the NFL.
