Fact of the day

The year we won the Super Bowl we went 3 and 1 in preseason. We also lost to.... the Dolphins the last game of the preseason. Deja vu anyone?

I'm hoping for the same this yr and every year but realistically our 2009 schedule was pretty easy compare to this one this year we have a brutal one coming down the stretch I think our season rests on a 5 or 6 week stretch starting with (Dallas, SF, @ATL IN 11 DAYS) @Seattle ,CAR,@STL granted STL isn't a power house but we have struggled against them. How we handle that stretch is crucial cause all are conference games, as a matter of fact our last 8 games are all conference games so how handle those 6 0f 8 games I think will be the key to our playoff hopes

A lot depends on Sunday. If we get off to a good start defensively & offensively against Atlanta it will give the team confidence & especially the younger players.

I wouldn't say we struggled with STL, we struggled with Steve Jackson.

Dallas is no concern of mine this season.
