Remember that story about Belichick showing the team a film of a horse race and he stopped it in the middle and asked the guys which horse won. Of course, the point was that a horse came
from the back of the pack and won going away. That's how I feel about projecting wins now. The race hasn't even started yet. Crunch all the numbers you want, but the data is incomplete. We're still building this team and should have a slightly clearer picture next Sunday, but there are way too many unsettled issues for me to want to guess at a win total in April.
I like to watch preseason games to get a better feel for where we're at and think those games can give more of an indication that many believe, but there is no way in hell I'm going to listen to anybody tell me that the New England Patriots are destined to be a .500 team based on the shitshow that was 2020.
