After calming down after loss and looking at other teams schedules and ours what you think realistically

I respect your opinion but with dallas,skins,falcons remaining games they could collapse and we basically only need to win atl,and bears which we are due lions gimmie,panthers may be resting for playoffs

i can see us finishing 10-6, but it'll most likely be 9-7...either scenario, though, i don't see us in the playoffs

Nope. Even if we win out, not going to be enough.

I think us winning out and going 10-6 is way more realistic than everything else panning out.

I was really depressed when the Saints lost, and then when Carolina won in Green Bay that's when I basically gave up hope. We're done.

but if we go 10-6, i still think it's a great year...i mean, we had a ton of injuries (i think we have 14 players on IR) and our offense has returned to the top of the rankings...i think it would be a great season to build on...


we still need a FS, OLB, OL, and RB though...

Nope. Don't deserve it anyway. Good teams should not have to rely on what happens with other teams down the stretch. If they had taken care of business and lived up to their expectations, they would have been AT LEAST 12-4 heading into a first round playoff bye.

If they run the table, they probably still wouldn't make the playoffs.

+1

Although Atlanta will probably be the favorite to win the south.

Actually, if we do win out, our chances are pretty good. It doesn't look it with 10 teams in front of us, but it's true. I'll post a thread with what we would need for it to happen later today probably.

No, this team needs to get things straight and build momentum for next year. We loose so many draft picks who cares if they are at the beggining or end of the round. Win out and even if we miss the playoffs we will be ready to roll next year with a healthy and hungry team focused on not letting the early season games go by without a fight.
