I had this team pegged as an 11 or 12 win team. If, if, if Tua is done, where do you see us? 8, 9 wins?
 
If Tua’s out for the season(he won’t be) then yea I would say about 8-9 wins. I think Tua will probably miss about 3 games so I think we are still on a 11-12 win projection
 
I think Bridgewater can get them to 9-10 wins, if he stays healthy, based on the schedule.
 
Guys, it's a bad concussion... he misses 3 games max. He got KOd and pulled that finger reflex grasp that freaked people out. It happens even in small injuries.

I've seen other players lose consciousness without a word.
 
I feel as though you also have to totally adjust the offense. Teddy does not have the accuracy on those short, quick throws. He can throw it deep fairly well though
 
Tua will miss 2 games max, IMO.

McDaniel will adjust the plays to what Teddy does best and we’ll win both upcoming games without Tua. He’ll come back and help us win against the Steelers at home Sunday night. Assuming he stays healthy after that we should win 7 of the next 10 games for a record of 13-4…

If Tua doesn’t come back, I think we go 10-7, maybe 11-6.
 
without Tua we are lucky to end up .500 if X stays healthy and Byron Jones is back and 100% next week. that's 8-9, 9-8 with a 17 game schedule.

and that's only because we have 3 wins already banked.
 
As much as I like Tua and root for him, if this team is as good as we think it can be it shouldn't collapse because of the loss of one player. And if it does that should end the debate over can Tua be a franchise qb. If your team is a contender with you and a complete collapse without you than you are undoubtly a franchise qb.
 
Tua means having a chance in games remaining vs @49ers, vs @Chargers, @Bills, vs Packers, vs @Patriots...or having a better, easier chance against @jets, Vikings, @Lions.

Without Tua 5 games look grim, and 3 others don't look as easy or possible on our schedule. I expected 12 to 14 wins, without Tua 6 to 9 wins only is very possible.

It’s not one player
It’s your starting QB
And they for 99% of the time make or break you
 
I mean if we can’t beat the jets then we have a problem. They’ve looked better but Wilson is awful, defense should win that game alone. I think Tua could be very well be back for Vikings game however if hold him out either way especially with a win over the jets. Maybe Teddy B can have one good redemption game vs his former team and get us a W. Back vs the Steelers would be my guess. That gives him over 3 weeks to heal which even the most server’s concussions is enough time to heal and it’s looking like despite the fencing display, the concussion itself is more mild then severe.
