We currently sit at 5-5, good enough for 2nd place in division, 2 wins outside of first place.
Next opponents are:
- Dolphins
- Chiefs
- BYE WEEK
- Vikings
- Chargers
- Chiefs
- Colts
- Broncos
Realistically, how do we end the season? My thought would be a loss in MIA, an underdog win against the Chiefs, a loss against the Vikings, a win against the Chargers to keep us in 2nd place, a loss against KC, and finishing the season with wins against the Colts and Broncos.
That would put us at 9 and 8, just above 500. I think our chances of making the playoffs if it works out this way is still unlikely. The AFC north looks particularly strong, we will be competing for a wild card with the likes of the Bengals, Steelers (who beat us), Bills (if MIA stays in 1st, lost to them already), Browns, Jaguars, etc.
For us to make the playoffs, it’s likely we need another surprise, underdog win or two. I can see them possibly beating Josh Dobbs in Minnesota, especially if the defense continues to play tough. If that happens, I think we can squeak in to the playoffs at 10-7.
Do y’all agree? Different opinions? Anyone think we make the playoffs at 9-8?
Great win last night, playing inspired, smash mouth football. Back to .500, basically a new season, like being 0-0 again. RN4L!
2-5 from that slate.
