Teams we need to win in bold

Tukey Day Games

Pats @ Lions= easy one..pull for the lions

N.O. @ Dallas= Cowgirls, this will also weaken our strength of schedule

Bengals @ Jets= Bengals..palmers been sucking ass so unlikely but fun upset

Sunday

Green Bay @ ATL= niether are a threat at stealing the pick but we need to weaken our schedule.Go packers

Steelers @ Bills= The longest shot of the week but we gotta hope bills have good fortune but not luck

Titans @ Texans= Titans already have 5 wins (doubtful we come close to that)Texans only have 4

Jags @ Giants= Both teams already have 6 wins, but to weaken our strength of schedule we need big blue to lose

Vikes @ Skins= Need favre and friends to bounce back here, not only does the vikes record suck (3-7 vs skins 5-5) it will also strengthen the lions strength of schedule to help us in any potential tiebreaker ..only downside is it weakens cowboys schedule but still makes most sense

Miami @ Oakland= both teams already @ 5 wins dont pose much of a threat against us for the # 1 pick..but we need to strengthen the bills schedule for the tiebreaker sake. Go phins

Chiefs @ Seahawks= Both teams lead their divisons with 6 wins,but once again for the tiebreaker we need the hawks to win cuz they have the 49er's and cardinals in their division

Tampa @ B-more= even though we played both teams this year we need to weaken our strength of schedule(play bucs twice obviosuly)

Philly @ Chicago

the bears play in same divison as lions, due to tiebreaker possibilites it would help if bears could pull this off.(i know we played the bears too, but detroit plays them twice)

STL @ Denver= Tricky cuz 49ers and Cards who both suck in rams division so we dont want to strengthen their schedule but denver only has 3 wins. so not devastating if the rams win as long as we dont catch up to denvers record

San Diego @ Indy= Need the bolts to win to strengthen denvers schedule..you should know why by now

Cardinals @ 49er's= hard to figure cuz we play both and they both suck. either hope for a tie or go with the 49's..their schedule is much tougher than arizonas cakewalk the rest of the way

I think the cardinals are worse then the 49ers so I would hope they wins so that they have a little belief and play harder to beat us! haha.

Oh and don't care how much it pisses some off, I'm pulling for Delhomme and the brownies this weekend... Number 1 pick here we come.

I also root for wins for some times in order keep some coaches around who might otherwise lose a job, making our position more attractive to candidates since there will be limited openings. :P

Jaxel, don't you think it's about time you change your avatar and sig? haha

Ive said it before, and I'll say it again, there is NO CHANCE IN HELL, that I would ever root for the Dallas Cowboys. I don't care whats at stake. F**K them.

It makes me sick to do it. But if anything good is to come out of this season its that # 1 pick. They are also playing the aints...so it doesent feel as bad.

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      They traded away their 1st next year also to get James Pearce Jr. Really hope this blows up in the Falcons face. I don't care how it happens, I just want to win the division this year. Zero sympathy for other team's issues. And our pass rush looks like it needs all the help it can get.

      I would have released him this season, tbh and worked with Christensen out there.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By Seltzer · Posted

      10/10. We're due for some good luck, and I think this team is much better than what we've had the last 2 seasons. Defensive injuries could derail us b/c our depth there is still questionable. Still worried about the pass rush getting pressure without blitzing. Pleasantly surprised by the secondary and run defense.  Dan Morgan has done a lot to resurrect this roster from the deplorable position Fitterer left it in by showing some scouting chops with hitting on these guys drafted in the later rounds or UDFAs. Lathan Ransom & Corey Thornton both look like they fit this scheme and the NFL isn't too big for them.  I'm as excited for the rookie trifecta of T-Mac, Scourton, and Princely as I can remember. On paper, this offense is the most talented since 2021, maybe 2017, and maybe 2015. None of that means this team will produce any better, but this team has offensive talent & depth like we have rarely had in team history. If you don't believe me, go Google it. We've had some awful offensive collections overall in many years, to varying degrees mitigated by superstar talents like Steve Smith, Christian Mccaffrey, or Cam Newton.  I honestly think the collective offensive talent in 2025 may be better, but Cam was so otherworldly in 2015 & 2017 that he covered any flaws. Seriously, though, Cam doesnt get enough love for 2017. I think that may have been his best season. In general, Cam doesn't get enough respect IMHO. Both in college and in the NFL, Cam took teams that without him would have had no chance and won. True definition of a guy who elevated his team. To be clear, I am in no way am I saying this team will be better than 2017 or 2015. My point is that the offensive talent is there on offense if Bryce can unlock it.  I've been a Bryce supporter, but there are no excuses not to perform with this group. This isn't the disaster we gave him in 2023 or a new scheme like in 2024 where I think he hadn't mentally removed from his rookie season to start. I dont know how you couldnt be excited about that. And we still compete in a division that isn't insurmountable. I got got in 2023 like most of us in buying into the team propaganda, but in general, I think I'm pretty realistic about the team. I knew in my heart we would be bad last year. I wasnt expecting the defense to be that bad or Bryce to start off that poorly, but I had no expectations whatsoever for making the playoffs. And I genuinely think we will be competitive all year this season. I think we win 8-9 games and compete for the division. I think the ceiling is 11 wins, and the floor is 7. The good news is after next week, we will all be proven right or proven wrong. Keep Pounding!
