give it up already, we will NOT make the playoffs!

Hard to get excited with our record of inconsistency. Can you honestly say that you see Fox being able to change the direction of this team signifcantly enough to give us a snowballs chance in hell of making the playoffs with the schedule we have in front of us. History says no.

Luckily we know the history and are not doomed to repeat it. Doesn't mean we won't, but I have confidence that we will change the trend this season.

sooo...game one and two are an exact picture of what the team will look like the rest of the season.

i think i'm getting a good idea of how this psychic thing works.

thanks for the help.

Let's see we play the NFC East this year and the Eagles right now MIGHT be the 3rd best team in that Division and we play the Falcons 1 more time and they don't even match up well against the Saints who we've yet to play.. that's easily 4-5 more L's coming our way and that doesn't even scratch the surface of the AFC East, the Pats, Jets and Bills could all easily beat the Panthers. We're staring 4-12 or 5-11 right in the face. You can't tell a lot after 1 week but after 2 weeks of the same pathetic play.. it's easy to see the direction this team is going. Time to rebuild! Tank the season so we can get Bradford!

Not when Steve Smith looked like he wanted to kill someone on his own team all day yesterday.

That only works if you have a 1st round pick. We, unfortunately do not.

You do know the Pats should be 0-2 right now. Just saying. Anything can happen.

bradford most likely won't be coming out in the draft next year if he misses much time. he'll want another chance to prove he's worthy of a #1 overall pick which is what he will probably be getting.

anyway, with his backup coming in and doing just as good as he does, i don't think that bradford is quite worth the hype that surrounds him. he is looking like the product of a good system. he won't be worth the really early 1st round pick that he most likely will be taken with.

Damn, forgot.. what were we thinking!?!?!

They were thinking that if they gave Jake an extension he would get over his funk and become the great team manager that they thought he was and take the franchise all the way like they planned all along. Still waiting on that one.

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
