God help the optimist...GAME BY GAME PREDICTION

ATL ---- 1-0, Tough win, as their O-line not good enough
@TB --- 2-0, Payton will not let there be any hangover
AZ ----- 3-0, Wierd team. Despite all the talent, rudderless
MI ----- 4-0, Monday night, prime time, grind
@CH -- 5-0, Bears going backwards
@NE -- 6-0, Gronkless, Welkerless, O-lineless, porous defense
BU ---- 7-0, UNdrafted rookie qb, injuries
@NYJ - 8-0, NFL scheduled this game to let Rob drop the hammer on his Bro
D ------ 9-0, Payback Jerry, payback
SF ----- 9-1, 1st hiccup.
@ATL - 9-2, Can't expect to win, NFL needs GA to not secede from US
@SEA - 9-3, If we can't beat a team with a losing record there, we won't beat one with a winning one
CAR --- 10-3, seals playoff berth
@STL - 11-3, Fisher mailing it in. Looking for playoff positioning
@CAR - 11-4, We always have trouble with them in december
TB ----- 12-4, This win secures bye

There you have it. I am truly ashamed for the rampant and unrepentant optimism.

Flame if you must. You all must have different opinions.

I see it like this too. When we go on that 3 game skid they'll start to write us off. But then comes the playoffs...

Go home.. Your drunk

Not that I disagree, you are just not optimistic.

Re: God help the optimist...GAME BY GAME PREDICTION

We always lose a couple that we should win and win a couple we should lose. Predi ting them is nearly impossible. But it wouldn't shock me to see us beat SF and Seattle, but lose to Arizona and ST Louis.
Basically I'm calling 11-5, but don't know which five we lose.

Re: God help the optimist...GAME BY GAME PREDICTION

You lost me at the SF game. We have to beat SF.

1. It's our turn.
2. We are playing at home.
3. 49ers fans must suffer.

Clearly the worm has turned for you Xan. Welcome aboard. Now I have to wonder: Who is the real Walrus...

Re: God help the optimist...GAME BY GAME PREDICTION

I'll take a stab


ATL - Pft, we own the Falcons. 1-0
@TB - This team is not very good. 2-0
AZ - Should win this one fairly easily. 3-0
MI - Saints always bring it in prime time. 4-0
@CH - Remember the last time we play this team? Sack city. 5-0
@NE - Time for some humble pie. 5-1
BU - Good team for a rebound game. 6-1.
@NYJ - LOLOLOL. 7-1.
D - This could be a tough one. I'll say a close loss. 7-2.
SF - Another tough one, but it's at home and there is a score to settle. 8-2.
@ATL - The sweep is on. 9-2.
@SEA - Tough place to play. Close loss in a low-scoring game. 9-3.
CAR - Piece-a-cake. 10-3
@STL - I see a weird loss here. 10-4.
@CAR - This team is not half as good as people think. 11-4.
TB - Division in hand, rest starters, still win. 12-4.

Re: God help the optimist...GAME BY GAME PREDICTION

Some of you guys are rediculous. Nothing about this defense shows me that they have improved enough to get one or two more wins. 80% Of our defensive roster probably wouldnt even make most teams final 53. Pair that with a brutal schedule and I see9-7 10-6 At best.
