When I do vote in this poll, it's going to be flat-out for "Everyone else in the division is simply better".

We really shouldn't be that much better or worse than last year. I don't think 4 wins is very likely at all, because at least four wins is a virtual guarantee. 7 or 8 seems like a better prediction.

And as we all know from experience, it only takes a lucky break or three to turn a 7 win team into a 10-6 division winner.

I know some publications are going to write us off, which gives the potential to give their editors hell in January, but it is what it is. Whatever we can accomplish this season is simply a building block for the future.
