We've got a lot of work to do; we're close, and close don't mean ****. And you can put that on TV for me. I'm tired of coming close, and we're gonna work our asses off until we ain't close anymore, and it may take some time; we're gonna get it done; we aren't an eliminated team yet.

Could've, would've, should've" is the difference in what I'm talking about! Eliminated teams don't come in and say "Could've." They get it done! All right? It's that simple! I'm tired of saying "Could've, should've, would've."

I'm pissed off right now. You bet your ass I am. I'm sick of coulda, woulda, shoulda, coming close, if only."

Assuming we don't make the postseason - which we probably will not - ending the season on a 4-0 run would be some nice momentum going into next season.

Plus, the D is starting to get better (yes "better" is compared to the worst D in history) and maybe the scheme will work with more time and more talent (next year).


And who knows - maybe the cards will fall in the right order for us.

This is our best chance to make it, IMO:

2012 NFL Playoff Machine - Simulate Matchups and Scenarios - ESPN


If you want your brain to hurt, consider that we only need to win out and have the following happen:


1) Rams - Lose any 1 game - @ BUF, MIN, @TB, @SEA

2) Vikings - Lose any 1 game - CHI, @STL, @HOU, GB

3) Bucs - Lose to Saints ONLY - PHI, @NO, STL, ATL

4) Cowboys - Lose to Saints and NY Giants win NFC East or Lose to Saints + one other game - @ CIN, PIT, @NO, @WAS

5) Redskins - ANY TWO losses - BAL, @CLE, @PHI, DAL

6A) Seahawks - 3 losses or 2 NFC losses - ARI, @BUF, SF, STL

OR

6B) Bears - Lose 3 games - @MIN, GB, @ARI, @DET

OK, I'm sensing either you had a very hairy Aunt Ruth or a very touchy feely Uncle Bert. Do you need any counseling?:patos:
