Or are they still reading about how great they are from last year?

you think thats why they lost the playoff game? They read all week about how great they were and didn't do their weekly prep? Payton just showed clips from the Super Bowl all week up to the game?

They do.

This idea that "playing with a purpose" or "having a chip on your shoulder" doesn't win teams not 1 extra game.

It's nonsense, IMHO.

Sorry but I've got to disagree with Kafka.

I believe for the 2011 season Payton will have them at 110%.

If they hit 112% effort and 92% healthy efficiency, we will win the super bowl.

You may be right with the 108.26%.

Had not thought we could get the H.E. co-efficient above 91.5 but if so your right on Chad.

I think that they should out-cliche everyone else next season, and that will be enough.

They will have to take it one cliche at a time.

I hope you are not referring to the SB season. If so, major fail.
