1. The tacks win the division with an 11 - 5 record
2. The clots finish in second place with a 9 - 7 record
3. The tinhorns scrape by with solid defense and adequate QB play but finish 7 - 9 
4. We fail as usual due to poor QB play and lineman play and end up 5 - 11

i do not understand the negativity from you and we haven't played one real game yet?

Trust me. I don't get it either. Maybe it's because I am getting old and am growing less and less optimistic and patient and am now prone to cut right through the bull [BLEEP]. 

I used to be heavily optimistic as a fan. I don't like to always be the debbie downer dude but it's just gotten to a really, really bad spot for me as a fan. Just can't tolerate it like I used to. 

Ten years is a long time to go without seeing an actual football team worth your three hours on gamedays. I just have to be honest. From what we've seen over the last few years there's just little to no reason to be excited. 

You can get hyped up on individual players like Ramsey, Ngakoue, Fournette, etc. But it's all for naught if we're still laying eggs and losing games out there. Watching this team has started to cripple my interest in anything and everything football related. At least NFL wise. 

But I still enjoy the message boards. I at least gave them a +2 on their record this year. 5 - 11 is better than the 3 - 13's and the 4 - 12 records we've seen the last few years.
