2-2 at the quarter pole, next 4 games

**BillickFan** · 10-02-2017, 08:47 AM

Are:
@Oak (Carr left yesterday w an injury)
Chicago w/Glennon or a rookie
@MN maybe w case keenum
Miami w/ cutler & they are soft

We could conceivably be 5-3, 6-2 at the midpoint. We may be running into a stretch of injured QBs who allow our D to look more like the D that played Cleveland & Cincy.

Will our perception of this team change if we reel off 3-4 straight W’s?

This league has few dominant teams. We still can be a playoff team with our favorable schedule.

We're not winning the next 3-4 games. We're too flawed.

The only team that looks as bad as we do right now is the Chargers and their WR core is light years ahead of what we have to watch on sundays.

The way this team is performing we are looking at picking very early in the draft next year,

I can see them at 5-3 if Carr doesn't play next week. They won't beat Minnesota, but they can beat Oakland if Manuel is at QB, and they should beat Chicago and Miami, who are both as awful as the Ravens, regardless.

lol we in trouble.

The national perception will be that we are a "contender"

much like the national perception has been for a decade that we have one of the best D's in the league.

We all know the truth

incredibly short sighted like most fans sensationalism. we see our flaws and ignore other teams.

Id favor us in almost all of those games depending on whether Carr plays or not, thats looking at our flaws, as well as theirs. Vikings have a strong defense but just lost 1/3 of their offense, theyre similar to us. Dolphins arent that good and Chicago isnt either. Both those games will rely on our rush defense to improve, but plenty capable of that. we may not be favored in the away games, but i doubt its by much. Again, id expect us to come out with 3 wins in the next 4, barring further injuries.

Let's revisit this October 30th.

5-3 at the midpoint. 6-2 would not shock me. Every team suffers adversity and this 2 game stretch is ours.

Im good with that. Like I said I expect 3 wins. no worse than 2-2. Id say the odds are in my favor of them winning in the next 3-4 games over not.

lol some serious kool aid here, how are we going to score points to win games?

5-3, 6-2? With this team, as it currently stands, we will be lucky to be 4-4 at the midway point... Bc
