Obviously the Jets are a team that made some big moves in the offseason after a dissapointing season. Before they got Brett I thought they would go 8-8 or 9-7. With the addition of him I think they will go 10-6 or 11-5 and lose in the second round. Anything past the 2nd round would be a great season in my eyes but for you guys what would be a successful season? A playoff appearance? Afc championship appearance? Or SB? I would sign for an 11-5 season right now. The AFC is really tough so it will be tough but if they get hot like the Giants ANYTHING can happen.
Playoffs is the goal. Coming off a 4 win season, anything after round 1 is just gravy. Let's be realistic, you don't go from 4-12 to Super Bowl in one offseason...
Unless you're the 99 Rams who won the SB following a 4-12 season.. The '88 Bengals lost the SB after a 4-11 season. Here's the whole list. Patriots 2000 5-11 2001: 11-5, ???? Bears 2000 5-11 2001: 13-3, ???? Saints 1999 3-13 2000: 10-6, Lost divisional round Colts 1998 3-13 1999: 13-3, Lost divisional round Rams 1998 4-12 1999: 13-3, Won Super Bowl Giants* 1996 6-10 1997: 10-5-1, lost wild-card round Chargers* 1991 4-12 1992: 11-5, Lost divisional round Broncos 1990 5-11 1991: 12-4, Lost AFC title game Bengals 1989 8-8 1990: 9-7, Lost divisional round Bengals 1987 4-11 1988: 12-4, Lost Super Bowl Colts 1986 3-13 1987: 9-6, Lost divisonal round Bengals 1980 6-10 1981: 12-4, Lost Super Bowl Bucs 1978 5-11 1979: 10-6, Lost NFC title game Colts* 1974 2-12 1975: 10-4, Lost divisional round Packers 1971 4-8-2 1972: 10-4, Lost divisional round
you know what...fuck the Super Bowl berth...i want a Super Bowl WIN!! I know it's a lofty goal..and i sound "unrealistic" to most of you....but seriously..I'm sick of hoping to be mediochre...if the fuckin' Giants can win with Eli....the Jets can certainly win with Favre!! :drunk:
Win the Super Bowl. As far as I'm concerned, that should be the case for every single team in the league.
Playoffs and if possible, all I want for xmas is to go to the AFC title game and a better record than the Packers. Early on, looking at this schedule I was predicting a 10-6 or 11-5 and that hasn't changed
dude...i live in Canada, trust me..there's no other beer out there. Although...i tried American beer...tastes like stale koolaid....i feed it to my dog when he's constipated :smile: but back to the topic at hand......it's super bowl or bust, fellas.
It will always be more than we can get unless we win the super bowl. I remember watching the Packers last season and the general consensus was if we just make the playoffs we've had a successful season (since we didn't make it the year before and there were very few roster changes). But after a few wins you get spoiled and want more. Eventually making it to the NFC Championship game and losing was a disappointment. In hindsight it was a great journey and we were lucky to get that far.
