This is a 10-6 team.

pump the brakes

Before this week, 6-10 was my optimism.

Let's say we get lucky and split the Saints.

Let's say Atlanta is as bad as advertised, but we still drop a dud in one of those.

Let's say Chicago can't get their QB situation figured out.

We ain't beating Green Bay or KC as we stand right now.

We might be able to beat Ron later on in the year.

Maybe we can beat TB in Charlotte.

We should beat the Broncos, but you never know.

Toss up one W between Minnesota and Detroit.

 

Max optimism, 9-7.

Anything better is cool.

Anything worse is expected.

Looking at our remaining schedule, I only see 4 more losses against the Saints (split), Bears, Chiefs and Packers. The rest of the schedule is cake. No reason at all why we shouldn’t finish 10-6 and easily make the playoffs this year. 

Bears are not looking so hot anymore either.  They only put up 11 points yesterday.  I think that is a very winnable game.

we've beaten two not so great teams and gotten beat by two not so great teams, so this feels a little premature 

I agree it's premature, but I think the Cardinals are a pretty solid playoff contending team. That was a big win.

I definitely wrote the Cardinals off as a loss.

I think they were outcoached, which is promising imho. That's why I am somewhat more optimistic.

Let's see what Atlanta does tonight and when we go down to ATL before we get too eager to get our hopes up.

Pump the brakes, you’re embarrassing yourself. I see between 6 to 8 wins this year which is really good considering we’re rebuilding.

    • Mike Davis is like yeah, why would these coaches expect me to watch film on our next opponent if I'm playing good.  Yeah, I really don't pay attention to a lot of stuff around me if I'm doing good.   also Mike Davis, how dare they give all the reps to CMC.  from just listening to that interview, I think Mike Davis likely was often in Mike Davis' way and he can't comprehend that aspect.  Even his story of why he hated people.....was weird.  He hated Steve Spurrier because Spurrier was like hey Mike, Marcus Lattimore left...and we need you to step up into that role/void and be more for us.   And Mike Davis was like, can you believe that motha trucka!! Nah Steve.  Just give me the ball and leave me alone (paraphrasing it all obviously but that was the gist). 
    • Unless he's 1,000%, just sit him an extra week at this point to let him get his legs back under him. I want to see him out there as much as the next guy, but this was a serious thing and I'd rather wait an extra week than put him out one day too early and risk something going wrong, play the long game for once.
    • God, these posts are really starting to piss me off If we're relying on Moore, Idzik, and Canales to carry that weight, then we're royally screwing over our young WR room.  It's not that those guys can't help with some of it, but these young promising WRs are going to miss out on a lot of learning that can only be provided by the vets on the team.   You do realize that coaches spend ZERO time in the locker room, right?   They are only in there just before games and at halftime, but the rest of the week, they have their own locker room, they only spend time with the players on the field and in the film room.  There is soooooo much time that you're leaving unaccounted for where players are working together to get better. Players are constantly talking about their game and how they can improve while they're in the locker room.  If you think career long special teamer David Moore is going to be able to carry that water in the locker room, then you're sorely and woefully mistaken. Even beyond that, if a coach pulls a player aside to give advice between series, that still means there are 4-5 other WRs who aren't getting individual advice, where that's normally a time a vet like Thielen is going over with them what he's seeing out there and how they can do X, Y, or Z to do A, B, or C better on the next drive.
