Getting to .500 and possibly a winning season...I'd be happy with that scenario. Not satisfied, but after what we have been through, a winning season would be a major accomplishment. Any other team would have folded by now.

There is a lot of heart on this team, that's for sure, and the leadership is definitely there ... I think that's what I like best about following this team,

This is the 4th week in a row, the D gutted it out in the red zone, and
stopped at least one goal line series dead. I still dont think the O is 100% on track, and Brees himself would tell you so. You'll know they're on track, when theres a pressury 3rd down, and they nail it, like in the Texans game last year.

- which shows you how useless statistics really are. The Raiders were really never a threat in this game. This defense is starting to show some
guts when it really matters.

You must have missed my sarcasm reply later on in the thread.
