Come on. That doesn't even look like you're being objective anymore.
It just sounds like you're trying to get some shock value like some of the people on ESPN .

If falcons fans, skip bayless, the rest of the media, etc are saying we'll do better than 7-9 and WE'RE NOT, then we need to get our priorities straight and create a fine line between objective, and just plain gibberish.

Carolina always plays us tough and we usually split with them, how is that absurd? The Eagles are a legit team and if Vick is playing have just as much of a chance to beat us than we do of beating them. NY, the reigning SB champs in December at their house? Yea struggle with the wind every time we play them at their house. Cowboys are iffy, Ill give you that one, but they are no slouch. The Chargers have an offense that is almost as prolific as ours when they are hitting on all cylinders. Every one of those teams are playoff contenders with the exception of Carolina. Again, No head coach, no interim coach for 6 games is tough to overcome.

Quoting media is gibberish.

I'm not even go say anything.

But I didn't just say the media.

FALCONS FANS. The people that hate our rotten guts? Still think we'll do good.

Eagles are crippled on qb. Eagles went 8-8
Giants have a ton of injured and no DBs. giants do bad at home. They went 9-7
chargers offense is NEVER on all cylinders and they don't have enough weapons to be the saints and no defense. 8-8
Carolina plays us hard AWAY and they have no defense and a qb who throws just as many picks as he does TDs. 6-10
Cowboys are inconsistent and have too many injured receivers and romo isn't clutch. 8-8

You should instantly make every home game a win.

Paytons system will make it easy to overcome. At least for 1 year.

We looked VERY aveage in preseason and for the most part, look like a ship without a captain.

8-8

We'll beat a couple of teams that are better than us and lose to a couple of teams we're better than.

We'll beat a couple of teams that are better than us and lose to a couple of teams we're better than.

Cardinals game- dominated the cardinals

Pats game- everybody thought we had the best defense in the league

Jags- I'll give you this one but we did have most of our starters out

Texans- We beat perhaps the most complete NFL team in the whole league. How is this average?

Titans- Honestly I give them a pass on this one cause of the storm. They traveled more than they would need to in the regular season.

How is this average?

I get the ship without a captain comment for the jags but one game doesn't spoil 3 others. Plus Drew Brees seems 100% and curtis lofton looks good.

Plus preseason is a bad way to judge a team.

The lions had a perfect preseason. Right before they went 0-16.

I'm sure many lions fans thought they would do great that year.

Maybe I could see us losing to lesser elite teams like the cowbys,eagles,etc. But it's not gonna be like losing to the rams or bucs. Last year we were basically told to play without a headcoach on the field with no warning. This year we've had 4-5 months to prepare.

13-3 for me with us losing to packers, broncos, and giants.
