NFCS wide open?

[Black&BlueBubba]

With the all the injuries this weekend, have you changed your outlook on possibly having a chance at the NFCS title?  

Brees could miss some significant time.  And Teddy Bridgewater looks like Kyle Allen.

Atlanta already lost Lindstrom and McGary has to leave with a knee injury. McGary said his knee was making all kinds of snapping an pooping noises. Although he did return to the game but they are unsure about the longterm issue of his knee  Their OL Is not that much better than ours right now.  Probably would have lost last night if not for half of the Eagles team getting injured also.

But I’m not sure that changes the confidence I have in us actually making a run.  Main reason is our  coaching staff.  

But if we can fix our OL and Cam can get it together we could actually be competitive.

What say you??

[Waldo]

We would need to win a game first, and then some more after that. I say fix first and worry about the playoffs later. Our focus should soley be on us and getting better.

[Mage]

For the other teams, yes. 

But until we know if Cam can return to form on even a semi-consistent basis, then we have no chance.  

When in 8 years has Rivera proven he can coach a winning team with a subpar Cam?  When he falters so do we usually.  I hate to say it because I try to be optimistic but we just HAVE to see good Cam before playoffs is a realistic thought.

Don't underestimate Ron still getting outcoached by Sean Payton (even without Brees) and Dan Quinn. So to answer your question, no it has not changed my outlook. I've lost confidence in this coaching staff ever since that superbowl fiasco (hell, I still wasn't confident in Ron after all those blown leads we allowed over that year). And supercam isn't walking through that door any time soon. So that means Ron and Co would actually have to put together solid gameplans week to week and make adjustments during games. Yeah, not going to happen.

Ron:  I've got no plan if I've got no Cam

If anything it looks perfectly in line for the Bucs to finally accomplish what they've been hyped to do for the last 10 years. 

We'd have to string together convincing wins against good opponents before any hope should be salvaged, this roster is past limping into the playoffs for moral wins or some poo.

Here are the lines for next week.

CAR - 3 @ Arizona

ATL @ Indianapolis -2

Giants at TB -6.5

NO @ Seattle PICKEM

[Mr. Scot]

With the season only two weeks in, everything should be considered wide open.

There may be different degrees of likely and unlikely, but with only two games in the books, nothing is impossible.

More so worried about the second half of the season, barring a resurgence of cam from early last year and a resemblance of actually nfl coaching we’re cooked. Even still it may take a big trade to get us over the hump the second half of the season

For us... ROFLAMO

Your Pats looked real good yesterday

[KillerKat]

Would've been a great year to fire Rivera in the offseason.

ATL and TB are inconsistent

NO will be at .500 and we are in essence the Freido of the division

Inconsistent after 2 weeks of play? How do you come to that conclusion so fast? You’re hoping they’re inconsistent. If NO didn’t lose Brees we’d finish in 4th place.

[Pejorative Miscreant]

I think the panthers need to focus on winning the next game.  If they can win then we talk about scenarios.  I think the falcons may have straightened things out so they will be the favorite IMO.
