Message: [QUOTE="jekelish, post: 899461, member: 82"] I'd love to see a nine win season, but let's keep things in perspective a little. During the McNabb years, we got to nine wins three times and only had eight wins during Donovan's senior year. Since then we've only gotten to nine wins once, when Freeney carried us to 10 wins in 2001. Another winning season, whether it's 7 wins or 8 wins or 9 wins or whatever, is the most important thing. That would give us three straight winning seasons and, presumably, yet another bowl, which would be 4 in 5 years. We need to get consistency first and foremost, and then work our way up from there. Edge our way to being in the "also receiving votes" part of the top 25, then get INTO the top 20-25, and go from there. I will be satisfied if we can get back to being even in the 20s year in and year out (as a reminder, those McNabb teams never finished a season ranked higher than 19 in the AP, 16 in the coaches poll).
