So in 2003 we only beat one team with a winning record en route to a SB.

So I went and did some research. Below are the teams we faced in 2003 and the teams records that year in our SB season.

Jacksonville Jaguars (W) 5-11

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (W) 7-9

Atlanta Falcons (W) 5-11

New Orleans Saints (W) 8-8

Indianapolis Colts (W) 12-4

Tennessee Titans (L) 12-4

New Orleans Saints (W) 8-8

Houston Texans (L) 5-11

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (W) 7-9

Washington Redskins (W) 5-11

Dallas Cowboys (L) 10-6

Philadelphia Eagles (L) 12-4

Atlanta Falcons (L) 5-11

Arizona Cardinals (W) 4-12

Detroit Lions (W) 5-11

New York Giants (W) 4-12

So we were 1-3 against winning teams that season and the only win we had against a winning Colts team that year was just by 3 pts in OT. Our opponents total record for that year was 114-142. So what is my point to this thread? There is no such thing as the saying "but such and such team hasnt beat a real team" in the NFL. I dont give a fug if we go 16-0 and all 16 games we played against the Jaguars, wins are wins are wins period, end of story!

I have never once heard of people say "well so and so only got to the SB because they played weak teams all season" that is BS all you have to do is play good enough to get into the tournament then it's anyone's game doesn't matter how you get in as long as you get in you can be 16-0 or 8-8 and still win the SB

 

BTW thanks for looking that up that should shut some people up only wish the people over at NFL.com and ESPN.com did research like you just did

You missed the point. The point is it doesn't matter who you play or how you play. A win is a win is a win. You get to the dance, anything is possible. You may get the girl, you may not, but at least you went.

The point was never that the wins don't count because we played crap teams. You beat who you are assigned on your schedule. The cheifs had an easy schedule but are considered to be near the top of the NFL.

The point is, we have to beat two winning teams at the very least to make the playoffs. So no, we are going nowhere until we beat a good team.

      How am I all over the place?  I'm still saying that. I'm saying that Chark at his best and T-Mac right now, on the same team right now for the 2025 season, T-Mac would be ahead of him on the depth chart Week 1. Because in the same way everyone is saying, "T-Mac hasn't played a snap in the NFL yet", the very same is true to say, "nothing Chark did in his past matters moving forward" His peak was a 1,008 yard season where he was the only decent WR on a terrible team.  He didn't put up the 1k yard season because he was a great WR, it was because of how bad the rest of them on the team were. His stats aren't the same as his ability, and his ability was never all that good to begin with. Hell, most of this board agrees that T-Mac is our #1 right now, even if Thielen is Bryce's #1 option early in the saeson just because of the comfort level there, he's still just a slot safety valve and T-Mac is our #1. If you put peak Chark on the roster RIGHT NOW (even without T-Mac)... is anyone even putting him over Thielen, XL, or Coker going into this season? I'm honestly not sure many of us would consider him as such, because even at his best, he was just a JAG.  So if the same people who are okay with T-Mac being ahead of those guys right now, wouldn't put Chark above them, how can you in the same breath say Chark was better than T-Mac already is now?

      Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.

      When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).
