What's the number that satisfies? How does that work for you?

[Stymietee]

While we will all be perfectly surprised and highly satisfied with a winning season, very, very few expect more than an 8-8 campaign in 2015. Right now there's one prediction on record offered by Dad (6 wins) which following 3 and 4 win seasons seems quite reasonable to me. While we all can make a prediction, I'm more interested in HOW you see your prediction playing out and in what manner does it satisfy. My questions:

1. How many games do you reasonably expect this team to win?

2. What makes you comfortable with that prediction?

3. How many games short of that prediction will it take to totally piss you off?

4. In what manner do you expect those wins to come?
( Using Dad's number (6) as an example will you be ok if the wins come all at once preceded or following a long string of losses? How about interspersed? )

I think Redskins win the NFC East this year

OK, if that's your threshold, then all of the questions still apply.

as you know i picked us for 6 wins . i think they will be interspersed but we should be in every game except the pats game . we arent in that class

i am comfortable with this prediction based on this QB play is still in question . i feel Rg3 will be improved however i dont think he can fix all the holes in his game in one off season . i think 50% is fair to expect

o/line HUH ? call out the masses ? the fact is long and scherrf have 18 pro snaps between them and it will take time to learn and be effective . they will improve and i believe will work out fine but they need time

depth , this team doesnt have the depth to be a long term contending team . it shows up on special teams . i could care less what the deans of the world have to say on this but the un homeristic truth is although we have a start to a better team it is only a start and injuries will come

game management has been an issue for years and it will show up again with new coaches . add to it gruden is learning the ropes and problems could show up

discipline on the team is lacking . we have a bunch of hot heads who commit silly drive busting or drive extending plays . we cant stay on or get off the field on 3rd down and we turn the ball over way too often

3 games short of the prediction will piss me off . that would be a step back . 2 would mildly upset me , 1 would not bother me

this is a long term rebuild in year one scotty will ID what he needs , year 2 he will gather the resources , year 3 it should start coming together

things that could set us back , Rg3 fails as a pro qb . we lose a trent williams or kerrigan our rookie right side Busts out and barry is a failure at DC

sty i hope this give you some good dope on my thinking

It does and I really like the extra effort you took to break down the different levels of disappointment you'll have if they fail to meet your prediction. Thanks!!

10 to 14 wins this season this year why? no hasslett that is all

I want a team that competes. I want a team that plays at a high level and leaves it all on the field. I want smart play calling and smart play on the field overall. Then will see were the chips end up. Just tired of being embarrassed by this team.
