The best we can do is win the superbowl like any other team before the season starts.
 
3 loses INSIDE the division would suck if we went 12-4.

not really. sure it doesn't really give us bragging rights over anyone, but honestly, would you care if we were 12-4? I could see us splitting with our division all the way. and after last season, i'd take it in a heartbeat.

If we are 12-4 and a wild card yeah I would care!!!

screw bragging rights. I don't care about that garbage
 
12-4 is downright laugahble, even if things break perfect for yuo and the other 3 AFC East teams are ravagewd w/ injuries you will not win 12 games.

The ceiling I would say is 8 maybe 9 games. Looking at your sched:

Denver is a bit overrated but will still be tough for you, you aren't winning in Week 2, Carolina is very difficult, at Buf is a loss, at TB will be a good game, KC will be very tough, at NO will be tough, Atl will be very tough, you will no beat NE, at Cle is winnable, at oak will be difficult, Buf at home will be difficult, at SD is difficult, The Jets at home will be very difficult, and NE again will be a loss. Best case is probably 8, you'll probably be in the 5-8 range. This is how I see it now:

SEPT. 11 DENVER BRONCOS 1:00 P.M. CBS W(1-0)
Sept. 18 at New York Jets 4:15 p.m. CBS L(1-1)
SEPT. 25 CAROLINA PANTHERS 1:00 P.M. FOX L(1-2)
Oct. 2 Bye Weekend
OCT. 9 at Buffalo Bills 1:00 p.m. CBS L(1-3)
Oct. 16 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers 1:00 p.m. CBS W(2-3)
OCT. 23 KANSAS CITY CHIEFS 1:00 P.M. CBS L(2-4)
Oct. 30 at New Orleans Saints 1:00 p.m. CBS L(2-5)
NOV. 6 ATLANTA FALCONS 1:00 P.M. FOX L(2-6)
NOV. 13 NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS 1:00 P.M. CBS L(2-7)
Nov. 20 at Cleveland Browns 1:00 p.m. CBS W(3-7)
Nov. 27 at Oakland Raiders 4:05 p.m. CBS L(3-8)
DEC. 4 BUFFALO BILLS 1:00 P.M. CBS W(4-8)
Dec. 11 at San Diego Chargers 4:15 p.m. CBS L(4-9)
DEC. 18 NEW YORK JETS 1:00 P.M. CBS L(4-10)
DEC. 24 TENNESSEE TITANS 1:00 P.M. CBS W (5-10)
Jan. 1 at New England Patriots 1:00 p.m. CBS L(5-11)

I had no idea what to expext of your sched, that is tough. You will be lucky to win 7 games, I think ou'll get better as the season goes on and probably win 6 games and gain some momentum for the offseason and be legit playoff contendeers in 2006.

Of course...because we know that it is impossible to go from 4-12 to 12-4 in one year.... :rolleyes:

For a team w/ AJ Feeley/Gus Frerrotte at QB ,w/ OL problems, w/ an aging overrated D, a rookie HC, issues in the LR, playing in the toughest div in football it is. This is another Heat in 5 moment for you :D

Boy...if I didn't know any better...I would have thought that you were describing the Chargers of last year.

BTW...what are the Jets going to be? 16-0?

5-11? Don't you think that is kind of low? I'd thought you would say 9-7, 8-8, or even 7-9. But 5-11? Come on now. Do you think we will only improve by one game?

As a BACKUP and he's better than your 2 QBs.

Boy...if I didn't know any better...I would have thought that you were describing the Chargers of last year.

The Chargers played in a weak division and have the best RB in the game and Brees had at least shown flashes. The dolphins play in the toughest div, have an unproven rookie RB & who knows what you get out of ricky and Feeley has shown very little.


BTW...what are the Jets going to be? 16-0?

No I am realistic, I expect around 10-6.


5-11? Don't you think that is kind of low? I'd thought you would say 9-7, 8-8, or even 7-9. But 5-11? Come on now. Do you think we will only improve by one game?

I think you'll be much better but it may not reflect in the record, before looking at your sched I was going to predict 7-9 but looking at it it's tough. Things can change quickly and it may not be as tough as it looks but right now that's what I see.
 
Here Ya go Nyjunc....what about your team?
