Default The November gauntlet: Looking at the schedule

Moving on, as bad as this team played today, looking at the schedule you figure they can beat Tenn and Miami at home and go to London and beat the Bucs. Then rest up during the week 8 bye.

Now at 6-2, the rough patch comes...

Nov. 15 at Indy
Nov. 22 vs. Jets
Nov. 30 at New Orleans

After today's events it's hard to say they can beat any of those teams. That NO game in particular scares the piss out of me. I don't have a great feeling about Indy either.

Regardless, three games against three ****ty teams comes at a good time to fix wtf is wrong on both sides, particularly the offense, before we get to that stretch. I hope/think they can, but admit it's not even close to a sure thing.

Did you forget Miami came to Foxboro and stomped them??? Miami is not a given.. that is why this game was important... the jets game was important.. but no one sees that now.. they think, " oh its just one game"" jets lose to miami we still in first place.. Take care of our own games not worry about help...

No but if we can't beat Miami at home with Chad Henne (or whoever) running the show then we don't deserve to be in the playoffs, so **** it. I'm calling it a W. Indulge me.

We beat the Jets and possibly the Saints. We lose to the Colts because since 2004 we've just hit a brick wall there.

Can someone tell me why it seems like we are ALwAYS playing AT Indy?

We also probably lose a game to Miami, because Miami does that.

Unless our coordinators continue to devolve into apes, we should still finish 12-4 or 13-3.

As another thread stated, an 0-5 Titans team would be desperate.
Miami can still run, and even though Henne has little experience, he has a better arm than Pennington and the Fins play us tough.

Initially I wasn't too concerned with Indy since their run D is awful, but Sanders should be back, and the Pats aren't that good at running the ball. Manning is totally in sync right now, and if he gets the kind of time other QBs have been getting, he'll shred the defense.

The Saints are the real deal, especially @ home, but BB seems to do well against NFC opponents.

The Jets.... Well, they shut us down in the 2nd half, much like Denver, and if this offense doesn't make serious progress by then, it could be another long, disappointing day. Sanchez will get better, and their D, barring injuries, isn't going to get worse.

The Titans game is far from a gimme, especially as they're looking pretty useful tonight.

I would say Broncos in Denver, coming off games against the Falcons and Ravens, was a lot tougher task than beating the Dolphins in Foxboro.


Seems like very few on this board want to give Denver credit for being a good team tonight.

We are going to have to have a hell of a game plan to win in Indy and New Orleans, and near flawless execution.
