If the offense improves AND the defense plays like it has in the preseason, I could see us winning 10 games or more.
Most likely, the offense will start off slow but build as Burrow gets back into things and gets over the mental issues with the injuries and I think the defense will play pretty well, so my prediction is we're going to win 9 games and fight for a wild card.
It could happen, but 9 wins after a slow start would mean we are tearing it up down the stretch. If this team starts slowly after the lackadaisical preseason, ZT should be fired at the bye. Just my 2 cents.
