Wagner status?

I'm expecting a typical grind-it-out fest against them where the game is still in doubt until midway through the fourth quarter.  Then we'll see who wants it more.

I can't imagine an easier pre-game speech to write though, given how close we've played them, the national lack of respect, and the Falcons loss last night.  I expect our team to come out pumped as hell.

stop with the have to be flawless crap to win. We will win this like we did the rest- ugly. Their defense is not that great.  We will stop Wilson and give Cam some good field position and the offense will be good enough to win. Sound like the same pessimistic posts we heard about Houston and we see how that worked out. Then again if you keep the negative dialogue you are likely to be right sooner or later. No body will go undefeated this year.

I have said if we win it will be ugly football....but we have to play flawless ugly football. 

Look at our history w/ Seattle.  The first mistake is when we lose the games.

I have never even said we lose this week.  Neutral field we should be favored in this game IMO.  People are too sensitive about looking for "negative" posts and overreact to them.

ugly and flawless don't go together. In fact ugly is almost the opposite of flawless. And no it isn't the first mistake that usually costs us, it is the costly mistakes in the fourth quarter that turn the game in their favor. The  problem I have is people like you are negative and we are undefeated. At least wait until there is something to be negative about.

sure they can.  All I mean is effectively playing Shula/ball control.  Low scoring, boring, and not many plays worth noting.....but being mistake free.  Which is basically how many of our Sea/Car games have gone.....only we have made the big turnover.   The games have historically been so close b/c we play mistake free.....then the first big mistake normally is in the 2nd half....often in the 4th quarter.  We have to avoid the big mistake we always make vs Seattle....and play Shula ball.

Sorry you have a problem with stuff.  I don't see it as negative.  I see it as discussing both sides of the coin....which you can do with every NFL team.  Like I have said before, I get some people don't want to do that about Carolina.

I personally have us now 6-2 at the half way mark based on how I see things progressing.  That isn't negative IMO.  If we continue making strides I will alter that too.
