reddogblitz Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) No, but it means losing for a few more years...not easy to come back quickly from 2-14 or 4-12 seasons How Lang has it taken Jacksonville to get above 5 wins? Or Cleveland? Edited August 20, 2017 by reddogblitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elite Poster Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 There is nothing to be torn about, they don't want to win and they prioritize their own guys over talent. 5-6 wins max. Trust the process. I haven't looked at 5-8 win seasons, but since 2002 69 teams have gone 4-12 or worse. of those teams: 13 went 4-12 or worse the next season (18.8%) 47 had a 0.500 record or worse the next season (68.1%) 22 had a winning record the next season (31.9%) 15 had a winning record and made the playoffs the next season (21.7%) 1 team made the playoff going 8-8 the next season The most likely result to us going 4-12 or worse is that the next year we will be back to going 7-9... If there was a way for me to give you an award for making a phenomenal post, I would nominate you. People do not understand this. They are so excited that we offloaded talent so that we can be mediocre for three more years, while we still had two firsts to begin with. Get this thru your head. This drought is at risk of becoming drinking age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Direhard Fan Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 The ball can bounce in many directions. A break here and there and we win 9. I would be very happy. We were in the hunt LY and still had a chance. I can only see improvement this year with the new team. We believe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked at 5-8 win seasons since 2002. 177 teams, so a much more likely result statistically. 111 had a 0.500 record or worse the next season (62.7%) - 11 of these are just the Bills if you ignore us it goes down to 56.5% 66 had a winning record the next season (37.3%) 53 went to the playoffs the next season (29.9%) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
