If they go even just 6/6 the rest of the way?

Colts

@Lions

Bills

at Packers

49'ers (mex)

Falcons

Panthers

@ Patriots

Lions

Commanders

@Jets

Bears

I think all 6 of their next games are extremely difficult

3 of the last 4 are home games...

I know, one week at a time.

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

I said back in the prediction thread before the season that we will start out hot and have our first loss to the Bills. At the beginning, I never thought it would happen after the first two weeks. Here we are 5-0.

Even if the team went 7-5 from here....that's 12 wins. The math gets fun when you start out winning your first 5. I think there are 7 home games left on the schedule?

That's exactly the point I was making with the OP..Except if we go .500 the rest of the way, that’s 11 wins.

5/0 is a very (very) nice place to be right now.

And while I'd like the bye to be a little later, I think now is as good a time as any with what? 4 starters out on O (not counting Jackson.)

Can this be right? We only have 4 more away games? Either way, the QBs get better from here on out.

I'm not a count your chickens kind of guy but I like the 2 game lead in the division. One game at a time looking toward winning the NFCN and a home game in the playoffs is the goal. Ways to go but they are solidly on that path. I'm pleased they didn't under perform and fall for any trap games and took care of business when they had to. They are the best team in the NFCN and they will continue to get better if the O-line plays well.

49ers in Mexico counts as an away game.

Penix, Young, and Maye I am not worried about. Bflo versus Maye I will take all day long with us confusing the hell out of him. We typically play well within the division as well. You are right, the QBs get better. The only one I am truly concerned about though is Josh Allen. None of the rest do against BFlo. Just my opinion.

Now when the dust has settled... I think we only lose 3 games from here on out. Josh Allen, Purdy, Williams with the losses. Williams being we sit our starters the final week.
