I think we go 6-10 or 7-9

I asked you my good man to objectively look at that schedule and see how many good quarterbacks and defenses we played this year and please tell me how we going to win at 6 games.

Bengals, Phins, Browns, Bears. None of the QBs for these teams nor the defenses are elite.
Also clots with Rivers ain't scaring anyone and their defense is good not great.
the bolts may have a good defense but neither tyrod nor herbert are worrisome. 
and the tacks have a question mark at QB as to whether playoff Tannehill is the real Tannehill. But let's say they are the best team in the division, even the tinhorns have an aging and questionable defense and without Nuke the offense will not be the same, albeit with Houdini in the pocket.

so 2 division wins plus 4 wins from Bengals, Phins, Bolts, Browns, Bears.

Add in one of the usual surprise wins against a team we shouldn't beat, or perhaps a team we sometimes have their number even when we're bad a la the Steelers.

It really isn't that crazy to think about a 6-7 win team next year.

I would say 8-8 is the likely ceiling and a goal to prove that A) Minshew IS the man and b) our team is rebuilding in a positive way. 
6-7 wins would be a success considering roster turnover of many players, especially if Yan doesn't play or gets moved.
