Missing the playoffs is becoming a huge possibility now

You know what is interesting about you Dude, you rarely comeback to defend these hissy-fits -- after people challenge you. If you are going to write this phobic drivel, then at least have the balls to respond to people's comments.

Hopefully, but the possibility is still there and that would suck to drop from competing for the one seed to a wild card spot in 3 games. If we beat the panthers it won't matter if we lose to Tampa or not but after yesterday I don't hold out much hope.

Of course nobody cares about the 10 positive threads I've made but the minute I mention something negative that's a possibility people jump all over me like I'm not a fan. What a great way to treat a fellow fan. Good job.

Eliminate the drama queen doom and gloom sky is falling posts and you wouldn't get hammered.

Perhaps titling the thread "there's a slight chance we may miss the playoffs" is a bit more realistic than the "OMG there's a HUGE possibility we miss the playoffs entirely".

It isn't a HUGE chance, its a slight chance.

The thinking that "anything bad can happen" is a whole lot different than thinking something bad is "likely to happen". Some of your posts come across as the latter.

Just my 2 cents.

I like when "The Dude" does this, it sure makes some interesting comments from him and a lot of other people!! It's never a dull day!!

You think Payton is just messing with the opposition?
The Pats loss ok.
But a good general always has something up his sleeve.
Two embarrassing losses? When is the last time you can remember that?
I think Sean has got an ace in the hole, and we will see a different team in the playoffs.

I rather doubt that!

here's the 'huge possibility'
we lose both, and:

Arizona beats both SF and Sea
OR Bears and Lions both win out

so not huge so much, more like highly unlikely, as again, it starts with lose both

It is very very very very unlikely that we miss the playoffs. First, we have to lose out, one of those games being against Tampon Bay, at HOME (like seriously not going to happen). Then the Cardinals have to win out, one game vs Seattle, in Seattle (Not going to happen). And then beat the 49ers the next week. Now having success in the playoffs is a different story.
