Tough 1/4 coming up with @Seattle, Atlanta, @Green Bay and Detroit. This team hasn’t really played consistent football in all 3 phases this year. I’m predicting we’ll be 1-6 heading into the Lions game. We’re not tanking but I just don’t think we’re built to win, currently, against the next 3 teams on our schedule. I could see them beating Atlanta and Detroit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are vulnerable you’re right. Just don’t like how our secondary matches up with their WRs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think both are beatable but ATL WR corp could burn us big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cearbhall Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Condolences to the tank crowd on the Vikings W. I imagine a Vikings W is a big L for the tank crowd. Keep your chins up though. There is always next year. Perhaps the dream 0-16 season will happen then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only team with a worse record is the Jets, and they might have a surprise win in them somewhere along the way this season. Number one overall is still very doable.

Cheering them on to 6 or 8 wins just doesn't get my excitement level up. We will just have to see how the season shapes up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giants, Texans, and Eagles are all also winless. Agreed about log jam though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't control it so I'd rather cheer for them to win and for the young players to continue to establish themselves 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry about the error on my part. We just have to hope the Giants can find a way to win one. You would think the Eagles can squeak out at least another tie (hahaha), and the Texans should easily win a few before the season is over. I don't know if I saw this site in this thread, but if anybody wants to follow how things are going, http://www.tankathon.com/nfl is a pretty fun way to keep up on the situation.

I can't blame you for feeling that way. I know I'm going against the grain in wanting them to lose this year. It feels strange, but I'm just trying to do something different in hopes of a big payoff down the line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just clicked on that link and I forgot that Houston owes Miami their 1st which is currently 3rd. Wowzers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
