Re: We need to win on the road

Don't see how we are going to win against the Panthers having watched that poor performance at the Rams. Their crowd noise wasn't even a factor in this game!

Hopefully we will beat the Bucs and get a wild card, but thats about as good as it gets. How things can change, we looked so good earlier in the season.

So, dismantling the Panthers last week was a fluke, then. What about the when the Panther's lose? Is that just a fluke too?

We are at least as good as the Panthers, you know how you can tell?

I don't buy the road thing -- except possibly in Seattle. We will figure this out. If not, we aren't a great team -- just a good team. And frankly, I think we want another party with the Lombardi in Drew's career.

We always play exceptionally well at home.
I think we just play up/down to our competition on the road. On the road, we beat Chicago, and we should've beat NE. Both of those teams are leaps and bounds better than the Jets and Rams.
We were just bad vs Seattle that Monday night, but I think it would be a much closer game if we played them again.

Besides the Seattle game, when we have played good teams on the road, we have played well. If we play a bad team on the road, we play bad.

I expect the Carolina game this week to be a pretty close one. I don't think we'll blow them out like we did at the Dome, but I still think we're very capable of winning.

Agreed…..Carolina will be close, but I see us righting the ship. Coach P's post game interview was scary. I think we'll be ready. You have to almost throw out the Seattle game, it's just a nasty, difficult task for any team to play well there, period. Throw out the flukes, like Rainys performance up there, give the chickens a chance to prepare w/ an off week and its as close to the 7th level of Hell as it gets.
