Really you think we will lose out the season? So with that attitude you never went for the super hot chick at college or the bar that everyone was too much of a pussy to go for? Just went for for the fattie hanging out with the hot chick? Pathetic.

Football and pulling girls? Not a great metaphor.

9-7. Bank it

... It's a metaphor of false confidence. There's no issue with pointing out the flaws in this team and having reasonable expectations. I actually appreciate that over saying shit like "zomg 11-5".

Then you have never have gotten anything by being over confident?

Again, what your preaching isn't overconfident. It's false confidence. Sometimes they're the same things. More specifically, you're rambling about a team neither of is are apart of. From a fans perspective, I'm allowed to not have confidence. If I'm on the team, I'm going to have confidence in myself and my teammates because I have to. I have no other choice. But again, I'm not playing.

To return to my original point of false

Confidence, if you're a raiders fan are you going to thump your chest going up against the Hawks? No.

LBC mike

So you only thump your chest when the team us winning?

I won't brag and be "over confident" if my team wasn't. Would you? Because if so, there's a particular school and coach in the state of M*ch*gan you should probably follow for college football.

7-9

They are still learning to play as a team and have confidence. Im still troubled by some inability to convert on third down. We were like what 4-15 today. We are doing play action roll outs too much, because they cant give hoyer the protection he needs. Our guys need to believe in themselves more.

When there is 2 minutes left, and your worried our team will still fuck it up. Imagine what they are feeling on the field. When you dont feel that anymore, you know we are a proven team.

Who is starting at Center?

Agree with the 9-7, although I think an argument can be made for anything from 7-9 to 10-6. If they get to 6-4 without Gordon, I think 10-6 is a very real possibility.

One game at a time... This Thursday is a HUGE game to really see where this team is...

All 8 are winnable, but I see...

Win 2 out of 3 at home, and 2 out of 5 on the road, and we got ourselves a 9-7 season... that's my best guess right now

13-3 We're finding ways to win. We'll continue to do so. There isn't a team that this defense can't hang with and the offense finds ways to grind out wins until Gordon and Cam get back.

Uh oh.......... The PoG kiss of death.

10-7, 1st wild card, lose to the Colts in the first round.

Gotta wonder...where's the tie?

Pessimistic: 7-9

Realistic: 9-7

Optimistic: 10-6

Atlanta and Houston we should win. The others are tougher matchups but I think we should win at least two of them.

Gotta think we win 2/3 of Houston, Atlanta and Buffalo.

Split with Cincy (hopefully).

2 weeks ago I was looking for nothing from the Ravens game, but recently it seems like they're very beatable.

Panthers before the season looked very difficult, now not so much.

vs Colts - depends which Colts team turns up. The team that shut out the bengals, or the team that let the Steelers drop 50 on them?
