IIRC, my best case scenario was 7-9 (2-4 in Division, 5-5 outside it). But I thought 1-5 in division more likely.
Still, we should have won wk 1 and if Boyd catches that TD, we are a conversion away from tying the Browns.
But I totally get the frustration. 3 things bug me most:
1) Not spending more in FA to protect Joe. And our organizational reluctance to pay OGs. Instead, we pay RBs & WRs who have zero impact because the line sucks.
2) Lou's stupid scheme to play 4-3 DEs as LBs in some 5-2 scheme with 3 DTs. Yeah, this with no real OLB/Edge types on the roster (maybe Lawson?) and no pass rush. Let Dunlap & Hubbardbe DEs, FFS.
3) No FBs or big RBs on the roster for short yardage. Cannot play soft in the North. We are the softy in the division.
