Playoff hunt

[BIGH2001]

Still waiting for November and December ron to show up

9-7 probably gets in, but even that looks like it could be a struggle to get to. 10-6 would be nice, but I'm not counting on winning all but the Saints games. 

They'll slip up at some point, but nothing about our defense has shown we can stop them.  Our last resort option is to weirdly turn into the Saints/an old version of them.  Try to outscore teams, run the hurry up, and just pray the defense gets a turnover.

Gonna have to beat Seattle, TB, Cleveland and ATL ... losing twice to NO looks like a lock at this point.

 

10-6, and that’s if we go 4-2 over the last 6......goddamn today was a bad Loss..... 

[mcsmoak]

Best scenario we can hope for at this point:

- Saints win out through week 16

- Rams lose at least 1 more

- Saints sit starters for week 17

- We enter week 17 9-6

- We beat the Saints backups and finish as the 5th seed, traveling to Dallas for round 1

- Beat Dallas and head to LA, then pray that the Saints stumble

- Win Super Bowl 53

- Eric Washington uses the playoff run to attract Thomas Dimitroff, and becomes the head coach in Atlanta

- Matt Khalil does something in the offseason to breach his contract

- Texans let Clowney walk and he gets Hurney'd

I don’t see us winning another game this season

Not looking good. 2 guaranteed L’s to the Saints. Atlanta has owned us. Seattle is going to be tough. Should beat Browns and Bucs but I also thought we’d win today. It’ll come down to the last game and a win and you’re in scenario against the Saints so we better pray they can sit their starters.

Seahawks game is a must-win.  Really, the next 3 games are.  If we go into Week 15 against the Saints at anything less than 9-4, we will need to win at least 2 games in a stretch against the Saints-Falcons-Saints to get to 10 wins and hope that is good enough.

Packers out of it, I think.  They just aren't very good.  Who knows with the Cowboys.  If we can beat the Seahawks, I don't think they'd get to 10 wins (that would put them at 5-6 with games left vs Vikings and Chiefs).

im not sure we can beat the browns....seriously

Playoffs, did somebody say playoffs!!!!

[ZoneRead]

I know we coulda shoulda but damn we should have won today.

 

The rest of the games we have to play lights out.

[Wanderlai]

Saints look like a Juggernaut. Only teams that can take them down look like the Rams or KC. They’ll get home field so no chance of weather screwing them over.

The Panthers have to beat Seattle next week or the season is over. They cannot drop another inexplicable game to a team they should beat or this season is done. And if the Panthers miss the playoffs after starting 6-2, Ron Rivera and his entire staff HAS to be fired.

I  wish we didn't look like hot trash right now.  We do not look like a good team.  We just don't.  Those 5 quarters, 4th  qrt of the eagles and all 4  qrts of the bucs game seem so long ago.  I guess we peaked early.

You can only run so many double reverses...
