Any fan who left this team or gave up on it wasn't a real fan to begin with, that being said I don't think it's nessesary to not look at the situation and to have realistic expectations. Prepare for the worst, hope for the best.

That being said so far the prophesy that most of us made has come true. I remember most of us thinking if we could get some guys back from injury, and get the guys who are replacing IRed players in there with some experience and allow them to gel we'd be doing very well. The Tampa Bay game was the true test of how far we'd come and we annihilated them, now the next test is Jax.

Tampa bay may have been the true test, but the Miami game was the epiphany! The comeback team of the season, they still held their breath as third string-seventh round QB Matt Cassel led his third string com'patriots' in a fourth quarter comeback against the Miami first string! :singing:
