Tough on paper. But this year more than any other is likely to be weird. We don't know:
A) How many of these games we're actually going to play.
B) How any player or team in the league is going to do with preparation under the current guidelines. I'd like to think that Belichick's experience gives him an edge here, but it's uncharted territory.
Basically, we have a bunch of general unknowns regarding the season, to augment the usual unknowns that go along with the schedule (teams rising and falling, injuries to starting QB's, etc). Predicting records right now is tough, since we don't even know how many games we have to predict. You could predict 8-6 or 9-4 and they'd be just as viable, at the moment.
