I had us pegged at 6 W's and that was hopeful as a fan given I thin our offense is as good as anyone's skill position wise, OL is banged up, and Teddy for me leaves some to be desired late in games. 

We have - TB / DET / MIN / bye week / DEN / GB / WAS / NO -- left to close out the season

I could see 3 to 4 wins in that window (DET / MIN / DEN / WAS) getting us to 6 or 7 wins, and all things considered that's impressive given the roster, and the weaknesses that we have. Even with that said I can also see us losing those games aside from WAS, I think we win that game almost no matter what. 

Question is will Sean Payton 4D chess us into another late meaningless Week 17 win and a sacrifice of potential draft position for a moral victory. 

I suppose we'll see...how do ya'll think we finish?

6-10

7-9

Or worse...

He 4D'ed us right into Brian Burns. I wouldn't complain if that happened again.

IR CMC, Beat Tampa, then start PJ or Grier the rest of the year.

Just have them launch deep throws to Anderson, Moore and Samuel and see what happens.

And just start blitzing super aggressively and see who on this defense can crush OLs the most.  

4-12 babay! (I kid, I kid)

The way Tampa looked last night, that could be a win

Let's sit back and see. An implosion in Tampa would be so sweet, whether it gets us anywhere or not. They are betting it all on this year, we're playing for next year.

I wouldn't chalk up the Tampa game as a win just yet.  One would think they will come out next week with an axe to grind, trying to prove they are not as bad as they looked last night. 

Of course, the only team that might be consistently as bad as they looked last night are the Jets. 

That said, I would enjoy a good meltdown and Tom Brady conniption fit.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
