"Forward" Road to the Wildcard

Beastmode · 11-07-2012, 02:44 AM

Thank god that mess is over for 4 years....on the wildcard yes, I know, anything is still possible, but say we beat the Falcons, would you seriously believe we had a shot at the wildcard or mildly entertain the thought?

I for one believe we would have a real shot considering the rest of the schedule. I figure there is room to drop 1-2 games but I'm looking at the 49'ers and they are coming off a Mon night game against the Bears. I don't see them playing at a high level. When we play the Falcons again they may start taking the pedal off the gas. Those are the only two games I would be concerned about. The rest of the teams are beatable even with our "Pewter Curtain" defense. I think we can do this.

Its a long and hard road to walk but what else is there?

I definitely still believe this team can do it, and I'll continue to believe they can do it as long as there is the mathematical chance for them to make the playoffs.

I would, but we have to beat the Giants and SF. That's tough.

Nothing worth having is ever easy to get.

NYG doesn't really seem that strong this year, nor did they last year, so I think the 49ers and the Failclowns games are the hardest ones on the remaining schedule.

...and I'd be more worried about the 49ers if the game was at Candlestick.

We beat the Cardinals, the Vikings, and the Colts with basically the same crew so with great coaching and heart we can beat the Giants and 49ers. We lose against ATL and it won't really matter.
