My way too early best case scenario - 8 wins, 9 losses
1. @ Minnesota - loss
2. Chicago - win
3. Philadelphia - loss
4. @ New Orleans- loss
6. Detroit - loss
7. Atlanta - win
8. @ buffalo - loss
9. @ Houston - win
10. Tennessee - win
11. @ San Fran - loss
12. @ Indy - win
13. Carolina - win
14. @ Atlanta - loss
15. @ Green Bay - win
16. Jacksonville - loss
17. New Orleans - win
18. @ Carolina - loss
my most likely - 5 wins, 12 losses with more 3 losses - saints, packers, bears, colts, titans no gimmes
this assumes baker players entire season.
I could see us going 1-6,0-7 out the gate where they just let Trask play as well to see what’s he’s got
15.
Surprised to see 2 prime time games given the low expectations.
To say 8-9 is "best case scenario" is ridiculous. There are too many games with teams who are 500 type teams. The only losses you can pencil in are Philly, Bills and @SF. None of the other teams are dominant Superbowl challenging teams. Week one with the short preseason can often be unpredictable. The Bucs last year beat Dallas before proceeding to sleepwalk through the rest of the season. So "best case scenario" would be something like 10-7 with losses to Phil, Bills, SF, GB and throw in three more random losses to NO, Jax, Car. You can't say "best case scenario" is 8-9 when there are so many middle of the road teams on the schedule. y
I'm not predicting right now. But I'll say the first four games before the bye will be a good indicator because they play three middle of the road teams. None of them are predicted to win the Superbowl, but they are all fair to good teams. If you can go at least 2-2 in those first four games that will be a positive start. 1-3 and there's still hope. If they start 0-4 then it's just a matter of time. I don't think that the Bucs are the type of team where they are going to have moral victories and build toward a strong 2nd half. They have to show us something in those first four games.
The early bye week is some bullshit...
All this pessimism is dumb.
We can easily sweep the south if we play well.
It just comes down to whether our coaching improves. If it doesn't, then yeah I'm thinking 4 wins
The only realistic shot for this team to win a game in the first 5 weeks is vs the Bears at home. And this defense kryptonite is scrambling/rushing QB's. So don't like the chances.
0-5 is very realistic and from there all hope could be gone. At that point we will be praying for a top 5 pick and to draft a QB
8-9 Bowles earns another season..... 😍

TB Morgan,
6-3 to finish the season?
Um, "no".
I see plenty of L's where you you have W's.
I'll say this.
There's going to be a LOT of tight games on that schedule. Between the emphasis of running the football and fielding a good defense, we should be in every game sans (Eagles, Bills, Niners)
Pressure will be on Bowles in-game management like going for it on 4th and knowing how to use his time-outs. Seeing his history in those aspects he's been pretty bad so as talented as this team is - I fear we will be held back by factors non related to the playing field directly. We had Tom Brady at QB and Bowles made a lot of head scratching decisions that could've went in our favor if he thought different. His conservative nature will end up costing us a handful games and I won't be surprised when we finish with 5 wins and lose most of our games by 3-4 points.

In that case, they are in the running for Caleb Williams
I love that you all think Vikings is a guaranteed loss lolz...
They were so overrated last year. We have corners that match up well. Our run defense should regress back to dominance...
I'm calling a week 1 victory... not scared one bit of any team on the schedule.
I'm not crazy confident in our team tho...but even the Bills and Eagles are beatable.
Niners is probably a lock for a blowout
