At 4-5 we are currently behind the 5-5 Raiders, 5-5 Colts, 5-4 Bills, 5-4 Bengals, and 5-4 Texans for the last Wildcard spot.
To make the playoffs we will likely have to be at least 9-8 and likely 10-7 with the way the AFC is shaping up.
Our remaining games are: @ Packers vs Ravens @ Patriots vs Broncos @ Raiders vs Bills @ Broncos vs Cheifs
I see Packers, Patriots, Raiders and 1 (maybe 2) Broncos game as potential wins
If this happened we are set up to sneak into the playoffs.
My question is:
would you rather we sneak into the playoffs and win a wildcard game, but Staley stays the HC
Or
Barely miss the playoffs but Staley gets fired
This are the two most realistic scenarios imo (minus the win a playoff game part) and I personally always root for the team to win/make playoffs.
This being said I cannot stand Staley and would rather we fire him no matter what the outcome of this year is
Us losing with this crew = Staley should get fired.
If we start winning, then hey - he’s the guy who turned it around and he should stay.
My 2¢.
