9-8, unless we start seeing something special in camp/preseason...

gotta see if we can score some points before putting .500 ≈ behind us...
 
worse case definitely shouldn’t be 9-8. Few bad breaks and we could be 5-12. I’m optimistically looking for 8-9 and anything more is gravy.

What the Commanders did is not the norm and should not be the expectation.

8-9 or better and the arrow pointing up on the team's future would be good. FA's would see this is a team on the rise with Vrabel in charge and more of them would want to sign here.

Yeah worst case scenario would be a Drake Maye injury early in the season. I don't see a Josh Dobbs team winning a lot of games.
 
9-8. Defense should be ready to go by game 1 and stout. Not really sold on the offensive line, they will be better just not sure they will be average/above average. I think the first 4 games, particularly if Diggs is not 100% will have some growing pains
 
Anything from 7-9 wins seems reasonable. I still hate the 17 game schedule... 16 was perfect. Greedy pricks.
Don’t worry, they’re going to get it to 18 games soon….

i’d be very happy to be in the hunt in december not the not mathematically eliminated in the hunt but like actually in the mix
 
your “worst” should be “realistic”

What the Commanders did is just about the norm for one team per year.

If it's not us, it will be Jacksonville, or Vegas, or Carolina, or some other perceived crappy team.
 
From 4-13 to 9-8 would be a huge win IMO. I know that many think playoffs are the goal, but they just are not with how bad the roster was last year. We might make the playoffs with help from other teams. The goals should be playoffs next year, and then contend for the division title the following year. Once there, anything can happen.

This is exactly where I’m at. My goal for them for this year is for them to be in the race for a WIld Card spot in December. **** can go wrong a million different ways, Maye could be down, the OL or DL could be decimated, Efton Chism III could be injured, or other MAJOR issues could occur, but if their games in December are meaningful they will have taken a big step forward.

Speaking for myself.. I have a hard time seeing more than 7,8,9 losses. With Mac Jones in 2021 at one point we had a 9-3 record. We imploded after the bye week thus giving us 7 losses. This team has upgraded everywhere. QB, HC, skill positions. Peak is 11 or 12 wins.. floor is 9 wins..
