Really think people are blowing the end of our schedule out of proportion.
Thereās a lot of hype around GB, Houston, and Cleveland right now, but all three could end up sucking. Watson was awful last year. Jordan Love and CJ Stroud were both good, but one or both could take a big step back this year. Itās doubtful both take steps forward and cement themselves as superstars.
The Jets could be in free fall by that time of the season, too. They have a brutal start and a 40-year old QB coming off a torn Achilles. If they arenāt making the playoffs, everyone is getting fired, and the wheels are going to fall off by the time we play them. Could well be two easy wins. Even if theyāre great, itās unlikely Week 18 @ Jets matters for both teams.
SF will be a difficult game, but at home.
