The Eagle's Nest, An Alternate 1812 French Invasion Of Russia TL

Is it really ASB to imagine a Russian empire that accepts French conditions after the invasion begins?
It can be considered ASB because the Russians had no reasons to accept the French conditions as long as their army was able to fight defensively and as long as their population and their economy was not on the verge of revolting/crumbling. Now, if the fightings had happened in the Duchy of Warsaw (which is the case ITTL in 1814), and if the Russians had lost decisive battles then they could have sued for peace. It would probably have looked like a 2nd Tilsit, with the Tsar only making little concessions.
