If you want to be a playoff team, you win this weekend

Everything in this league is geared towards the median, 8-8. Salary cap, scheduling, etc

It is the great teams that can pull out 2-4 games from the median to always be in the playoffs.

 

In this league you have games that you aren't favored to win (Tampa comes to mind)

Games that you are favored to win (NYJ as an example)

And Toss up games (Dallas) where it is 50/50

 

Sunday's game is one that "you're supposed to win", it is a lesser opponent on the road and this weekend will show how resilient this young group is, do they shake off a L and win a game they are supposed to win

Feels like a must win to me if we plan on sniffing the playoffs. Now the 5-0 in our next 5 crowd are off their f'ing rockers as well as the we'll be lucky to win 8 crew. 10 wins is a must to get there and we need this one bad at home to a (should be) inferior team. Keep winning those and I think we'll sneak in there.

Yeah, there's actually a lot of truth in saying week 5 separates the pack. We're a bit ahead of the curve, but if we don't pull out a win here, then we're going to have tough sledding ahead. Same goes for a lot of teams that are 3-1. And if you're 2-2 this is a make or break weekend.

1-3 teams, well, this weekend starts determining if your coach is on a hot seat or not. 0-4 teams it's deadman walking time if you can't make any progress (and yes, even for both of the teams with brand new head coaches.)

 

And Urban, I'd advise you to ride home with the team this weekend, even though it is a home game. You need chaperones and a curfew man, the ice gets mighty thin in Florida...

    • …is Brycen Tremayne with 108 yards. Not sure what that tells us but I imagine it’s some sort of gumbo consisting of the following: - Bryce can’t push the ball downfield  - contrary to what many were saying this offseason, the wr still needs a lot of work.  - we need Coker back badly.  - Brycen is pretty good! Congrats to that young man! Curious to hear other’s read on it. Was a pretty surprised to see he had more yards than anyone other than Tet and thought that was symptomatic of our issues on offense. 
    • I don’t think many fans would have guessed the Chiefs and Ravens would be where they are right now. Same goes for some surprise packages like the Colts, I’m not sure many would have put money on them being top of their division after five weeks. It’ll be interesting to see if this continues!   Not necessarily. The Chargers have lost both starting OL and their 1st and 2nd choice RBs. They fell apart against Washington. The Broncos have just beat the Eagles, so they’d be my favourite in that division, but they are still only one win ahead of the Chiefs. All the Chiefs need is a couple of results to go their way and they’ll be right in the fight for the AFC East. I think that division is going to be very close and probably not a 12 or 13 win division like predicted. Unless of course the Broncos kick on.
