Looking at what KOC has coaxed out of his roster two out of the last three years, it makes one wonder what he is capable of with a solid roster of both OL and DL.
Does JJM have a higher ceiling that Darnold? I believe so. I think we saw sudden Sam hit his ceiling the last few games of the season (definitely the last two...losses...but he was off for games 15 & 16 (less than 250 yards), in addition to that stinker against the Lions in week 18 where he had 166 yards).
I'll go with 12-5 and believe they could exceed that. However, if JJM lays an egg, all bets are off.

I'm thinking 10-7. Tougher schedule, lots of new players, how long till they mesh, lots players returning from injuries, how long till the recovering players are a full strength, redshirt QB, lots of positives here, but game gets real now.

I would love to see them replicate the year they had last year and finish stronger in the playoffs. That to me would be the best-case scenario. Worst case would include injuries to key players or JJM not being who I hope he is resulting in a losing record and I don't want to even consider that.
Ultimately it boils down to Jonathan Greenards message for the entire team for this season... "More is required"
