Look, I think you play for championships.

We are not winning a SB with this team, all else staying the same.

EVER

If we are happy with say the AFC east, beating the Jets, or the Lamar Hunt, we got a shot.

Rodgers would tear this defense a new one.

We need to get better on defense, if we hope to win the SB. If we are satisfied to get back, then we got a chance I would say at that.

No I am not part of the team, yes I have high expectations for our guys.

We have a great coach, one of the best QB's of all time, good players on offense.

Our secondary needs work to get to where we want to be.

Plain and simple.

You are ABSOLUTELY right... anybody can beat anyone on Amy Given Sunday. The odds are HEAVILY stacked against us in the next game.... the odds are very poor for a sucessful playoff run.



what did the Home W streak end at?

All these references to that awful game are just too much. I can't take any more.

As for everyone giving up and declaring our season dead...just a reminder that this is a year when the 0-6 Rams beat the N.O. Saints, and the 0-7 Dolphins just beat the KC Chiefs, who are 1st place in their division, by a score of 31-3.

Beat the Jets and we'll all feel much better.

The season's not dead, but I agree with much of the doom-and-gloom this time. The simple fact of the matter is this D could not stop a drain today, even if the drain was already 3/4 clogged.

As it's playing now this is not a good enough D to give a lead with a minute left. C'mon man.

If/when that changes, this season changes. We have the gimme wins to be in position, but I find it hard to think this D will be ready come playoff time.

Get into the playoffs and it's a crapshoot from there. Seen time and time again teams look terrible in october and even november in some cases catch fire at the right time and go all the way. You can never count out any team.

That said, I don't see any titles for this team in the near future. Until we get a legit OC who can create an offense that relies on more than just Brady, our offense is going to fail over and over against tough Dlines in January. If they have a couple good performances, no way they can string together 3 or 4 consecutive good ones. Regardless of how the D improves, the way our offense can be at its worst will put far too much pressure on it.

And like we saw today and against Buffalo, sometimes on clutch drives all the opposing qb has to do is just wing it up there and one of the inept morons in the secondary, next time it may not be Sergio Brown buut one of the other scrubs we somehow have in key roles, will bail the other team out.

I'm as homeristic as it gets but I have almost zero faith in this team winning a championship.

Just for the record, this is NOT exactly what I wanted. I wanted 8-0.
