They have been a .500 team to date....but the team that is playing the last few weeks is playing a better brand of football than what we saw in the first 3-4 weeks of the year.
They may end up 8-8. But I tend to think that may be their floor now rather than their ceiling. If they can somehow best both Minnesota and KC at home (a tall task no doubt) they have a real shot at 10-6 and a wild card berth.
Never underestimate a young amd motivated team. Earl's injury could be that God send to lift the team to another level. Look, team is playing better, you sure won't know it from looking at Earl:

Because most of us abide by the work contracts we sign and don’t try to take advantage of our employers. We accept our pay and are grateful we have a job and can keep a roof over our heads and feed our families.
And overpaying athletes hurts the team with a salary cap. Fans support team success, not player success.

Dude, this is totally, like the POST OF THE WEEK!!
I'm just imagining how it would go over if I went to my boss and demanded more money and when I didn't immediately get it, flipped off him and the rest of my work team. (HInt: It wouldn't go over well)
Oh, and also, last year, I went fawning to a potential boss of another organization in my industry, telling them to "come get me!"
When we translate Earl's behavior into regular working stiff terms, it sure comes across as entitled and detached from the reality the rest of us working stiffs deal with.

Unless people pay your boss to come watch you work it's not really the same.

Every business in the world has clients that pay for your work. Not watch you work, but pay for your work. As we fans (clients) pay for Earl's work

In my work, I am essentially a resource that gets contracted out to different business areas. And while they do watch me work, and pay for it, they also expect (and get) tangible and lasting deliverables that serve their business needs. I don't set out to "entertain" them as such but there is nearly always some drama in the process.
Earl's world of work as an "entertainer" is not as far detached from the working-stiff reality as Smellyman is suggesting. "The SAME"? No, but that's not a real question, and there are *plenty* of PARALLELs between Earl's world and the working-stiff world of (many of) us. If I got food poisoning during a team presentation to a client organization, barfed and collapsed and had to be carted out, and flipped off my boss and team while being carted out, it would not be well received by my boss and team, and would leave the client organization much less confident in the whole situation, wondering about this unhinged sick person flipping off his boss, and just how dysfunctional my company is, and why they should have any degree of confidence or trust in the entire situation.
Earl in fact tries to present himself in the media as simply a working man trying to provide for his family.
It's just really nice lately having the conversation be about the TEAM and not about Earl's dysfunction.
