DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Pure Football Forum Great set-up heading in to the Bye.

I would love to just win...If Mangini can beat the Pats, and then follow up with a win over the Jets...I may ease up on him a good bit....

I agree we need to pound it...Hillis needs 25 carries a game, and give Mike Bell another 10 or 12

Only pass about 20 times, and use Playaction ALOT and take a few shots deep with McCoy and keep the running lanes open...and just play our type of game...

i'd love nothing more then to win a few games...be nice to be in playoff mix atleast

The best thing about our schedule .. is that if we ARE in the conversation (even for a wilcard spot) ... having 3 division games the last three weeks of the season means we should be able to bump someone out of the hunt if we win, and if we are in good position, it could come down to a divisional game for the playoffs ...

Over the next 6 games ... we need to beat Buffalo, Jacksonville, and Carolina. Can't really hope for a post season if we cant take on the easiest of opponents even if Jax is better than they're given credit for. That would put us at 5-5

Then winning 2 of three from NE, NYJ, MIA puts us at 7-6 ... for the last 3 weeks of the season .. @ Cincy and Baltimore and Pitt at home ... 2 of 3 would give us an above .500 and possible wild card with 9-7 ... even 1 and 2 is a .500 record though

the next 2 weeks are the point where we can get hot ... or we just decide we should prep for next year.

PLAYOFFS!? ...PLAYOFFS?! PLAYOFFS!?

HAHAHA ... okay good point

Just a quick flashback for all who skim over this ... We were a 1-6 team getting ready to lose 5 more .. had only beaten the Bills by a FG (and only kicked 2 by the way) and had only scored a total of 72 points .. (just about 10.2 points a game...)

We are improving ... it just takes so dang long ..
