I’d say Orji as a running threat increases their chances of beating the bad teams on their schedule, while his passing drops their chances of beating elite teams to nearly zero, which is why they didn’t want to do it in the first place.
But now that it looks like they’re going to struggle against even the bad teams, they need to pull out all the stops even for that.
They don't really have any truly bad bad teams left on their schedule, no one bad enough to call anything more than a 50/50 game for them
The worst team they have left is Northwestern, who I don't think is very good, their offense is bad, but they have enough on defense to possibly beat scUM if the scUM QBs play as bad as they have.
Washington doesn't look great either, but that's a road game with them going all the way to the west coast. I'll give edge to Washington right now.
Getting to 6 wins is going to be a uphill battle for them.
