I don't see them doubling their win total against what looks to be a tougher schedule, even if they stay healthy. And it would be very optimistic to expect them to stay healthy for the first time in several years.
I also think it's pretty optimistic to chalk up the Chargers game as a win. I know that Denver's beaten them the last few times in Denver, but if both teams are somewhat healthy, LAC is a lot more talented.
I'm thinking 8-9 wins is most realistic.

They had injuries at WR, OL and then with Javonte after 4 games... there were others. Say whatever you like about Tim Patrick, but he was a big miss for that team. That was then... injuries always happen, but they've come in bunches last few seasons and no, injuries is not the only reason they lost. The HC also sucked. Wilson has issues and it's Sean's job to correct them and get him back to something resembling a starting top 15 QB that they mortgaged 2 drafts for..
