So 6(?) teams that have had their bye now, and yet there are still teams that haven't that are ranked higher than us (even after two great weeks).
Not a good thing.

Barring injuries, I really think this team can and will go on a run. Tough division right now, but they are starting to put it together and guys are starting to come back.

With your link, outside of NE we have played the 3rd, 5th, and 8th ranked defenses in the league so far.

Maintain that and we'll be in the playoffs

It is 2 good games against an anaemic offense and an offense missing a lot of key players on the day the Saints played them. Just pump the breaks there a little bit we got Rodgers and Stafford the next 2 games and then we shall see what we got.

The Jags and Rams are legit. That should tell you all you need to know about this season.

Bye week affects your stat. But, we are doing good in the points per game department.

Again can someone define a lot because it's the second time I've seen this said about Carolina, and they were only without Olsen, and then later Benjamin.
We've been without our two starting tackles most of the year. That's more significant.

I'm gonna go out on a limb as say that most of those yards were from the first 2 games. Big changes have been made since then and we've player lesser opponents.
The first 2 teams were too much for a defense that hadn't had a chance to gel and an offense still looking for an identity which put the D on the field more than they should have been.
Just for kicks, let's look at the last few games compared to the rest of the league and wee how it stacks up.

Now this is a good(ish) thing, considering how we started the year.

That was terrible, I'm so sorry.

Ypg don't mean poop. Turnovers and scoring do, same for the offense.

by the time you factor one less game played we would be around 25th give or take
