I can see 7 wins here if David Johnson is still out in Week 12.

We should beat the Colts and either Texans or Titans. I am not changing my Cardinals pick yet because run defense is our problem.

Definite wins or possible wins?

NVM.

If we take these next two, I don't see us losing to Cleveland, Arizona or Indy. 

That puts us at 9 wins there with four games left.

I see no way we can beat the Chargers. Philip Rivers could suffer a catastrophic injury and they would still kill us.

If Rivers goes down, the Jags would shut out the Chargers. That's how much he means to that offense.

Wouldn't Cardale Jones just feed Melvin Gordon all day?

That's all fine and dandy... but if Rivers isn't there... we would just sell out to stop Melvin. Not sure who is even backing up Rivers these days but Gordon alone wouldn't be able to beat us.

"Won't Brisett just hand it off the Gore and Mack all day?"

When a team becomes 1 dimensional, defenses can play to their weakness. If Rivers goes down, no one becomes scared of their passing game and they focus on stopping the run. Just like the Jags did Sunday.

Marlon Mack and Frank Gore are not among the NFL's best RBs. Big difference.

Gordon and Gore have the same YPA at a whopping 3.4.

Again... If Rivers goes down, that offense goes down with it. The fact that you think the Chargers would still "kill us" without Rivers is stupid.

Did you look at the Chargers defense before typing that?

Oh so now we are switching to the defense? Changing your argument? Nice.

The Chargers defense is good. No one questioned that but you still have to score points. If Rivers goes down, the Chargers don't kill the Jags. It's that simple. They may very well win but they won't kill us. I don't expect the Chargers to kill the Jags even with Rivers. This Jags defense is very good and the Jags run game is also very good. Do you know how you stop the pass rush of Bosa and Ingram? You run the ball effectively.

I've called the last 3 right, so I guess I will stick to my original guess. Only change is I think we can beat the Cards with no Carson Palmer.

So 10-6 instead of 9-7.

Yea they both have good enough players to beat us even though they have bad records

Other then those games Seattle, Tenn, Houston are toss ups too

The rest of the games should be wins so thats 4-0 gives us 8 wins right there, and if we go 2-3 in the rest of the toss up games, 10-6 it is

Exactly.

The way I see it...we have four "probable" wins in Cleveland, Indy, Arizona, and San Francisco, even though one or more of these games could be tough wins.

The rest are winnable games capable of going either way.  To me, we need at least a split in these next two, but a sweep would be a tremendous boost.

I was never worried about Carson Palmer. Calais Campbell knows him very well. But I can't deny it will help to face Drew Stanton or Blaine Gabbert.

I see four "very winnable games"  (the four I listed) and three more that are toss-ups in my mind depending on health, run-defense, and the Bortles - Jeckyll and Hyde factor. 
I'm guessing that ends up in 5 more wins.

Blake Bortles is not the only reason for our Jeckyll and Hyde game results. Special teams played a major role in that and we should be more consistent there after changing kickers. I think we should have no problem getting two or three winning streaks.
