He's picking up the ultra homer slack right where RahRah left off. It's ultra homer to predict 9 wins? Setting the the bar real low aren't you? Right now we have a complete question mark at QB in which our present options include Geno, Fitzpatrick, Simms, Heaps and Petty. Two guys who haven't done wondrous as a starter, one guy who has been nothing but a third stringer and two rookies and out of the lot Fitzpatrick is probably the best. So as it stands right now, in May, it's quite a leap to pitch an argument that we are going to have more than twice as many wins next year.

I literally don't see how people are scoring on this defense. I don't even think we need a QB and we get 6 wins. I mean this defense is just fucking ridiculous. No QB just kick FG

While I agree for the most part, let's not forget that this team is totally revamped from last year's squad. The talent level of this team has seen an incredible boost. If we were going in with the same squad as last year, I'd say it's a huge leap to say we'll win 9 games with these QBs. But, considering just how drastically different the team is this year, I personally don't think it's a big leap at all, and while I'm not exactly expecting 9 wins, I don't think it's out of the question at all. And, typically, I'm more of a pessimist. So, gather from that what you will.

I don't know how anyone could expect, or be okay with, six wins this year after all the moves in FA and the draft (including upgrades at QB), while at hte same time think 4 wins was underachieving last year. I don't know how those two views can be reconciled.

I'll be pissed that we don't turn around a .500 or better season but I'm not ready to put money on it as a prediction...yet. Once I see what's being done with the QB position I'll be a lot more comfortable enjoying my usual optimism for a new season. Generally I think it's stupid to be throwing down predictions this early whether it's 6 wins or 16.

We've got Wilk, Sheldon, Revis, Cro, Harris, Leo, B-Marsh, Decker, Kerley, Ivory, Brick, Mangold and decency in Fitz. If that is only worth 6 wins, then we should all give up on football until we draft the next Rodgers/Brady/Brees.

They roll over like fucking dogs. Luck is soft as fuck and will be "thanking" our dline and safeties very often. Like the Neckbeard lookin goofball he is. I do want to commend you for having us sweep the twats. I know that may have been hard Take the joke, Gin, take the joke.

So as it stands right now, in May, it's quite a leap to pitch an argument that we are going to have more than twice as many wins next year. We won 8 with a weaker D, a harder schedule and a Rookie Geno at QB. Geno in his second year was better than his rookie year, this is his third. Fitz is better than both Geno's. 9 isn't a stretch at all. Only to SOJFs everywhere who always have a hard time predicting better than .500

It was '86. They started 10-1 (not 10-0). My dad took me to the one game they lost in that span (Thursday night against the Pats). They were a great team that year though. Even though they lost the last 5, they won the WC game against the Chiefs. Then, they had the Browns beat in the Divisional Game (they were up by 10 w/ 2 minutes left). The prevent D and Gastineau's roughing the passer penalty fucked us and the Browns ended up tying us. 2 OTs and we lost :-( that was a tough one. We may have gone to the SB and played (and beat?) the Giants that year. F IT!!!! Stupid Jets always the same.

Stupid Jets always the same. i remember watching that browns game. ryan was doing a great job at qb. you know gastineau has always kind of the goat for that game but i clearly remember mcneil getting face masked but with no call. the call would've given the jets a first down late in the fourth and maybe the browns don't come back and win it. i also remember paul maguire stating, after the jets won 10, that they wouldn't win another game all season. that was a very strong jets team.
