Now I know that a lot of us are down on our team right now, but it's important to remember that we could just as easily be 3-1 right now. Both Atlanta and Cleveland beat us on fluke plays with Atlanta hitting not one, but TWO 50+ yard field goals to defeat us and Cleveland converting a 4th down and 7.

The thing that gives me hope is what happened last season in Carolina. They were 1-3 and well on their way to landing in the basement of the NFC South and they rose up, got their defense straightened out, and ripped off a long string of wins to wind up with the number two seed.

And our division completely sucks ballz! I mean Minnesota dropped a 40-burger on Atlanta. Minnesota!!! And Tampa Bay barely scratched out a win against the stupid Steelers. And don't even get me started on how awful a team the Panthers are right now. Worst in the league over the past two weeks!

This week, we will crush the stupid Buccaneers. We will ANNIHILATE them!

Carolina hosts a surprisingly good road team in the Bears while Atlanta has to travel to face the suddenly red-hot Giants.

If somehow Carolina and the Falcons both lose, and we win, we will be tied for the division lead with a 2-3 record!

Another reason for some optimism is how hard we are to defeat in the dome. If, by some chance, we are able to go undefeated again in the dome this season, and if we can just scratch out two wins on the road, that would give us a 10-6 record, which might even be enough to sew up a division title and a home playoff game. After that, anything is possible!

So remember:
1. Our division absolutely sucks, therefore we can still win it.
2. We are ridiculously hard to defeat at home.

We can still do this! We should be 3-1 right now!
