We'll be 4 point or more underdogs at GB and Atl, and all of the sudden our 3rd place games are tough: at Rams and vs Redskins; at Buffalo won't be easy either.

The only potential 'breather' is vs the Jets. Any given Sunday. This is a tough road.

Re: Remaining Schedule

No one saw the teams playing well that are left on our schedule for remainder of the season outside of several strong teams that are always a difficult opponent.

This team is young and has good coaching that will put a competitive product on the field I believe. The key will be to win the close games that we lost last year and build some momentum going forward.

We should also get a couple of injured players back and this team should be healthy after a weeks rest.

Another week five bye. Hmmmm........I guess it's good now but a few weeks later might be nice for a change.

Re: Remaining Schedule

Take a page out of Bill Bellicheck ..."all I'm focusing on is Detroit".

One game at a time.

Were it this simple?
Neither Head Coach or General Manager would be a position in the NFL.

Exactly. Neither is a position. Just because you have a problem with the two the players and the actual games played on the field are all that matter. There were many around here claiming that the Saints were going to be 0-4 after the first two games. How right were they?

Well?
