...anyone else feel like this is a trap game for us? It just feels that way. Media picking us. 2 game win streak. Just feel like there's an outside chance that this team might be high on the wins and not focus. Technically I don't think that this team has played MEANINGFUL December football. If Wilks directs this pack of men and keeps their heads on straight. Man...January football could be beautiful. Here's hoping that they don't fug this up.

You had me at media picking us.

That's usually where we crash and burn as a franchise for some reason.

Had a similar feeling going into Bengals game.  I thought the Panthers were finally ready to put up a statement game.  And they did, just not the statement we wanted.

Of course, the steelers aren't the bengals.  

But the one thing Wilks has us doing is beating the teams we are supposed to beat.  So until proved otherwise I am on board with a 3-1 record or better and home playoff game.  Just not sold we can beat a playoff team.

Yep, last time we were this hyped was last year when we were 3-0 was thinking we’re going to the Super Bowl. Then Sam Darnold, and the entire team just fell flat on its face. The only difference is now its Wilksinstead of Rhule, but I still don’t trust that Sam Darnold won’t fold under pressure.

Whatever happens Sunday, we should do our best to repeat the result until season’s end. 
 

Lose and keeping losing. A top 5 selection is still in reach. 
 

Win and do your best to keep winning. Top 5 pick would be out the window and sights should remain set on the playoffs. 
 

It’s a great spot to be in, and the crappy NFCS is helping us benefit either way.

      I hate to burst anyones bubble but this guy played 188 total defensive snaps in three years but 802 special teams snaps. If we do kick the tires, it's probably gonna be for that latter part.

      I do believe that Evero gets canned before the end of the season and Capers takes over the D. I think the stage is set for Evero to fall on the sword for a 4-7 win season.  Not saying it would be a set up but I do think if that transpires, the seat under DC might start getting pretty warm, rightly or wrongly. That's my read on Tepper. I am not at all excited nor am I dreading anything. I just have extremely low expectations so I am just waiting to see what this revision of the roster looks like.  I FEEL like we are better on paper than last season's team but I wouldn't be remotely shocked if we were as bad or worse. Again, I do think this is the 2nd worst roster in franchise history overall. What will really make me happy is for some of the big questions to finally be answered(Bryce, Ikey, Horn, etc). I would like to see a real expansion of our core player pool(basically just D. Brown currently). I want to see a couple of hits in free agency and a couple in the draft. If we accomplish those things, I have faith that we are at least moving in the right direction after many, many years doing the opposite.
