This final stretch has a whole lot of easy games that we should find a way to win.

Cleveland sits at 0-9 and doesn’t seem to have a lot going for them.

Arizona may find themselves starting Blaine Gabbert.

Indy is in complete disarray.

Seattle is, by a good margin, the hardest test left for us. However, they do have some troubles when heading out to the east coast.

Houston with their injury woes should be a relatively easy test.

Heading out to the west coast to face the (now 1-8) 49ers seems like a classic trap game that we’ll have to find a way to win.

Tennessee to end the season is another possible big test.

 

Based on this schedule, the absolute floor for this team should be 10-6. 13-3 or 12-4 is not out of the realm of possibilities.

Yep.  It should be fairly smooth sailing from here, as long as this team can maintain or increase their level and continue to clean up the sloppy stuff.  There are a few potential "trap games" in there, that could go wrong if they get too comfortable and don't take teams seriously enough.

And even without Sherman and the travel and stuff, the Seahawks are going to be a tough one.  That one and the Tennessee game to close it out should be the real measuring stick games left on the schedule.

It's still just hard to trust though.  Too much losing has made me so jaded, it's hard to believe.

We SHOULD finish with at least 10 wins but I’m still hesitant. Also i think @ Tenn is the toughest game

How tough that Tennessee game at the end is, could depend a bunch on what the playoff picture looks like at that point.  How much ends up being on the line.  Or how much ends up being already basically set before the game even.

Looking at their schedule down the stretch is very favorable for them too though. Odds are the difference between our records is no more than a game

They are barely getting by each week and play PIT/LAR stilll. 

Maybe it will be tied up/1 game difference, but I wouldn't bet on it right now.

All we gotta really do is get us to even with them and we will host.  We would/should have the division record the confrence record and point differential.
