Pre season I would have said 7-8, but most important for me was that we saw the development of this young roster.

We are seeing the development of the young players. A bit ahead of time and with a higher draft hit rate than we realistically could have expected. We are 6-4 at the bye with the hard part of the schedule played.

I expect a 10-7 season, which would be a great success. If the team is competitive but loses more game and end 9-8 or 8-9 it would still be a success based on my expectation at the beginning of the season.

Come on now that’s only because they’ve already exceeded your expectations. You can’t move the goalpost. :)

I think framing is important.

If we finish the season 8-9 it's going to be a mixed bag. I'll consider my preseason view and think that overall we made good progress, but that would be tinged with concern at having a losing record after the bye in the weaker part of our schedule, and yet again finishing the season poorly. Because we would have to go 2-5 from here to finish 8-9 and that would be poor. The team would feel the same way.

From where we are right now, we should be expecting 10-7 as a satisfactory season.
