I didn't put 5 and under as options since I'm sure those would all be considered failures.

Personally, I'm hoping for at least 8-8, but as long as he goes 6-10 he'll still be here.

My apologies for the confusing topic title. Took me about five edits before it finally cooperated with me...

Should be around 8 wins depending if we stick to a similar 3-4 defense. Offense should improve some where middle of the pack is what I am hoping. Cant be any worst than 31st

8-8 with a view to 9+ the season after. All though 7-9 is enough to get another season.

6-10 would be the interesting outcome

7-8 wins imo. This team still needs quite a few pieces. If they can successfully rebuild the OL and add another high quality pass rusher this offseason, that would be huge.

8 wins. Anything more means we have WAY more talent now than originally thought and that Kellke pulled off a masterful offseason.

Too early to tell. Gotta see the defections and additions via draft/FA

Realistically? It could be 5 wins, but I want to see how the team and organization are with him. It's more a cohesion thing. Id say 6+. Did he put together a good staff? His schemes make strides? Did we draft good talent? So many ifs. He should be given at least 3 years to get them in solid contention unless it's an obvious flop. But don't forget we still have Baalke. What if chip is fine and Baalke is the issue? It's very fluid to me at this point. One day at a time.

We should have won 7 in 2015 if we had decent coaching. So Chip needs to improve on that. And at least beat the Seahawks when we are home.
