To be fair, he said it felt like an "everything could go wrong" year. Reading between the lines, I would imagine losing Lamar would fit into everything going wrong.

I guess you could read that into it, but my comment wasn't really about him. He correctly predicted the record so no one can take that away from him and his victory lap. All I said was if most of us knew we would be without Lamar for  four games most of our predictions would have been a lot different. I know mine would have been.

Correct. Nearly everything that could have gone wrong, did.

Most people felt like the little streak of bad injury luck was temporary and wouldn't continue. It was not.

I'll go with 11-6.

 

That's accounting for current injuries, plus assuming Jimmy Smith/Tavon Young will miss time at some point, causing CB depth to get perilously thin. I'm also baking into that record at least one loss they otherwise could've/should've won, but everything went wrong and it wasn't their day.

 

If everyone stays mostly healthy and the ball bounces their way more often than not, it's easy to imagine that win total going up a couple games.

 

First win comes tonight!

Narrator: And they did not stay mostly healthy.

The guy will predict negative stuff all the time. Eventually he will be right. I said Oct 17th he still had a chance to be right if Lamar went down and thats what it took to allow him to beat his chest. Despite the insane amount of other injuries if Lamar doesnt go down for the last 5 games he again looks like a fool. An even bigger fool for predicting all the injuries and still missing on the win total by multiple games.


Kind of like the fool for thinking Huntley gave us a better chance than Lamar.How did that one play out.

And yall who said it, need to own it about Huntley giving us a better chance to win down the stretch. You put that on him. He should be getting a tip of the cap for doing his job as the backup fairly well. Instead hes got people like slidemaster to thank for the slander.

Lamar was no better than Huntley was before he went down. You have no way to substantiate your claims that they for sure would have won more games with Lamar. The whole team had been garbage since Miami.

Man, it must suck telling me how terrible my prediction was all year just to see it come true almost word for word.
