I didn't think we'd be 6-2, I thought we'd be at least 7-1. If you had low expectations coming into the season, then you're not much of a fan. 6-2 is still good, and I'll give you that. But we lost to two teams we should have beaten, and would have beaten if we hadn't thrown each game away with idiotic mistakes and play calls.

What we are seeing, as that we suck on the road. Which makes every loss so painful. If we do not secure home field advantage then we appear to have a very minimal shot at going anywhere in the playoffs. This team needs to improve dramatically on the road.
So you gave up before the game was over? Seems that would be the only way to know what the content of the thread would be.

Perhaps your pure genius.... since I make one every week.

Either way, take a breather before you give the impression we are Falcons fans going at each other when the team is 6-2.

No, when the jets were kneeling on the ball and we had no timeouts, smart ass. I knew at that point this thread was probably already on it's way.

You and others said the same B.S. after we lost to the Patriots.

And do you know why it bothers me? Two things. First, it's moronic to pretend any loss is less damaging when they all count against your record. But the main reason, is that some people feel the need to tell the rest of us how we should react. "Did you really think we'd be 6-2?"... As a matter of fact I thought we'd be better than that. Not because I'm spoiled, but rather because I took a look at the schedule and took a look at what the Saints were capable of and told myself we could win these games. The Jets are not very good. They are extremely average. This is a disappointment.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

Why don't you go jump on the Panthers bandwagon then? You might like it better over there

Mitch, you would do well to think before you post. You consistently take little jabs, and make no effort to make sense. Just what in Hades does me saying that some of you are saying the same crap as after the Patriots game have anything to do with a Panther bandwagon?

Go ahead and do that then. I'm pointing out the obvious, because I'm tired of the passive aggressive remarks about how we are spoiled if we're mad about a loss, and how it doesn't matter that much. But I can see that my words are falling on stubborn and deaf ears.

Depends what you mean by low. At the start of the season, I didn't think we would be as good as 7-1. Please do not tell me I am not much of a fan.

When I last looked, almost every team over the decades have made idiotic mistakes and play calls that have contributed to losses.

And when those teams made those idiotic mistakes that cost them wins, did it come back to bite them? Many times it does. It's up to this team to show some pride and not let this keep them down. Right now, they look uninspired.

As to your first comment, I don't think you have low expectations if you didn't think we'd be 7-1. I thought we could be at least that. Oak didn't think we would be 6-2. And given our underwhelming schedule thus far, that seems like low expectations to me.

I don't know or see what they are at the moment. Really next week is the best chance I have knowing/seeing how inspired they are

Re: Six and Two!

DAL
SF
@ATL
@SEA
CAR

Judging by how we have played in the last 3 games I say we go 2-3 losing to SF SEA and CAR. Going to be tough road ahead. Personally I don't think Payton should be calling the plays anymore.
