Still in position to take this Division

Beastmode · 10-20-2014, 05:30 PM

As bad as we look, we look better than the rest of the Division. Looking at it with a rational mind there is no reason why we should not take it. We are the only team that has not completely fallen apart. The point differential is awful with this group but we are only -10. It's not like we are getting mopped up on the field like the rest. We have to be close of going on a mini run of 3-4 games. Either that or we keep losing by small margins.

Not being able to win on the road and blowing 3 games with 4 minutes to go is pretty close to falling apart in my opinion.
The teams done.

And as bad as the defense has played up to this point in the season, they're the best in the division.

I guess what it comes down to is would you rather win the Division in a photo finish and likely get DDT'ed in the first round or, drop out of the race and reload.

We can't do the latter since the Bucs and Atlanta want it more. So we might as well put on our big boy pants and finish as strong as possible.

It's a fight for last place. The division will won by default.
When was the last time we won the division? If we don't win it this time it will be 3 years since we won it.

The Patriots have made a dynasty by being able to always be better than mediocre teams in their conference. If we can't pull it together and win this division we are blowing a golden opportunity.
