If we stay healthy and the Oline steps up and surprises us, the sky is the limit. I wouldn't be shocked to see 10-12 wins this season.
If we are gutted with injuries again and the Oline is as bad as it looks on paper, we are obviously in serious trouble. In that case, I see 4-6 wins if we're lucky.
Realistically, if I had to guess I'd say we finish somewhere around .500. I think it's very likely the offensive line will suck royally. Football is a game won and lost in the trenches. We'll win quite a few games solely because of our strong defensive line. But without a solid line on offense, we will struggle to put up points (and keep Dalton/McCarron healthy). That will unfortunately be a killer.
On the bright side, maybe another down year will mean goodbye to Marv. For the future of the franchise, that wouldn't be so terrible.
