The 2017 Insanely Way Too Early Knee Jerk Win Loss Thread
Here it goes ....
Sun, Sep 10 @ Bengals - Win, Jefferson notches his first INT as a Raven
Sun, Sep 17 vs Browns - Win .... its the Browns
Sun, Sep 24 vs Jaguars - Win .... Wimbley is overrun with purple, making this a home game
Sun, Oct 1 vs Steelers - Loss .... just too tired from the previous weeks trip.
Sun, Oct 8 @ Raiders - Loss ... We just can't seem to play them well
Sun, Oct 15 vs Bears - Win ... Bears are becoming the new Browns
Sun, Oct 22 @ Vikings - Win
Thu, Oct 26 vs Dolphins - Win
Sun, Nov 5 @ Titans - Win
Sun, Nov 19 @ Packers - Loss
Mon, Nov 27 vs Texans - Loss ... Board goes nuclear with the meltdown
Sun, Dec 3 vs Lions - Win
Sun, Dec 10th @ Steelers - Win ... just because season sweeps rarely happen between the two teams
Sun, Dec 17th @ Browns - Win .... Its the Browns
Sat, Dec 23rd vs Colts - Win ... Secure wild card
Sun, Dec 31rd vs Bengals - Loss ... Nothing to play for, as we secured the wild card
11-5 record, Harbs and Ozzie are safe from firing, causing a Heaven's Gate type mass suicide amongst the uber irrational faction of the Fire Harbs crowd.
Led by The Butter Knife, all involved are found wearing nothing but tube socks and t-shirts with Kyle Shanahan's face on them. The caption under the photo reads "What Could have Been"
.... that was satire for those who are not interweb savvy.

Don't see us winning all 3 against (titans, Vikings, and Dolphins. Easily we could lose 2 of those games. We never play the dolphins well home or away. Vikings and Titans are not the Jags or Browns. Hardly push overs.
I think Colts can be a loss as well. Luck can put up points.
Realistically its anywhere from 7-10 wins being the ceiling.
We face the STeelers after traveling back from London. Not an easy task
We cant seem to beat the Bengals lately.
9 out of the last 10 games we play are all quality opponents. Not an easy last 10 games.
I based all my assumptions on if this offense even plays as good as it was last year. Right now, with the departures our offense is even worse

8-8 maybe 9-7 I think it's the end for Harbaugh and Ozzie gets two years with a new offensive minded head coach

8-8 / 9-7 with a false narrative of our Defense being stellar due to only playing 1 healthy QB in the first 8 games.
This schedule is so easy its going to be almost impossible not to go 8-8

Largely agree except for the bolded part. Not sure where you're getting that the Dolphins have been a problem. In the Harbaugh era, the Ravens are 6-1 against Miami in regular season play and we positively wiped the floor with them last year.
Agree that the Titans & Vikes will be tough opponents.

@ Bengals - Win....we finally have a secondary that can contain Green.
vs Browns - Win....The Browns are going to improve a lot this year. But the rookies are still too green at this point in the season on the road.
vs Jaguars - Loss....The Jags always have our number no matter the talent levels of the two teams. Add to that this is a London game and I could see us coming up flat
vs Steelers - Win....good rebound game at home
@ Raiders - Loss....I just don't think we match up well with them. Especially on the road
vs Bears - Win....they'll probably be picking within the top 3 in next year's draft
@ Vikings - Win....our defense is going to control this game rather easily.
vs Dolphins - Win....the opposite of the Raiders. We match up well against the Dolphins ground & pound attack and get them at home.
@ Titans - Loss.....this one can go either way. I see them built similarly to Dallas who just overpowered us last year with their OL. The Titans have one that is almost as good.
@ Packers - Loss....if this weren't on the road I'd pencil this as a W.
vs Texans - Win....they don't have a QB.
vs Lions - Win....1 dimensional team on offense with a defense that has regressed every year since Swartz has left. Stafford is lethal in the 4th quarter though so this could be a trap game.
@ Steelers - Loss....we usually split with these guys.
@ Browns - Win....but watch out for this team later in the year. They will be much improved from earlier and they always play us like it's their Super Bowl.
vs Colts - Win....lock down Hilton and this is an easy win.
vs Bengals - Win....finally sweeping the Bengals.
