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...

    • FLA showed everyone it’s not about superstars. they bullied the best line in the NHL into obscurity. they played hard, were in the right positions, and ran over everything that got in their way.
    • That’s really not what you said and when I even expressed doubt as to your intentions with the post you doubled down and remained unclear on whether you were trying to drag Dean Smith for whatever reason. You just got the facts wrong, which if you don’t follow the local college programs like you say then maybe you just were mistaken and thought Smith didn’t win championships or have legit superstars, and that is ok, but you just doubled down when my first post was more corrective than anything. I’m not sure what you expect posting objectively false things like “RBA has a lot of wins with nothing to show for it like Dean Smith” (paraphrasing) on a message board with plenty of UNC fans. I’m not taking it as a personal affront, we can agree to disagree, Dean Smith’s legacy fortunately will not be affected by this conversation. Screw the (Florida) Panthers?
    • Bring in the free agents and trades.  Florida is the best team and unless Tulsky makes it happen, it’s more of the same…which isn’t bad…but it’s time to win a goddamn cup.
