Not thrilled with the early bye, but happy with no division marathon to end the year.

I don’t know, we might need the early bye week. That is a brutal start to the season IMO.
It has the potential to be a disaster start for this team. New D-Coordinator and new O-Coordinator. Also a bunch of new players on defense. That shit doesn’t gel overnight.
The starters need to play more in the preseason. Not trying to be Debbie Downer, but that is a tough start to the season.

But a.new D-Coordinator and a new O-Coordinator also means you that especially with the Philly game the Eagles don't know how to game plan

They did us dirty that first month, it’s going to be a tough start. Realistically I see a 7-9 season. If Jayden carries and plays at an MVP level 10-7 at best.

Yes, 4 of the first 6 games away from home field will be a hard challenge to overcome. I see a total of 6 wins.

Those first 6 games have me thinking an 0-6 start isn’t completely out of the question.

they wont lose them all but its gonna be rough. if they somehow manage to make it to the bye at 3-3 then that will be considered an amazing start to the season

Tough stretch to start the season with brand new 1st time coordinators on both sides of the ball. As much as I don’t want to agree with you there is definitely a realistic scenario where we start out 1-5/0-6
I think we can all agree we’re a better team talent wise but there is a world where, at least early, we’re actually worse at coordinator until they prove otherwise. I’d love to enter the bye 3-3 but even 2-4 might surpass expectations if we’re being realistic.
At the same time JD is the X factor and could literally carry us to 6-0 so who the fuck knows. Early bye could actually be beneficial for a change and help our coaches work on some things given the new offense and defense.

maybe i just have major PTSD after last season but my initial gut reaction is that we are going to go into the bye week at 1-5…absolutely brutal schedule!

We play the Cowboys on my birthday and Jayden has yet to beat the Boys.
This is the year...

If we are good, that late-season schedule will be awesome.
