Only looking like two S to play. I’m sure somebody gets called up. Edmunds and Sidney gotta start. Against the number one O…by a mile. Not ideal…is the nicest version about that. Lost Maddox and Roby. Cut Goodrich. Slay maybe comes back from injury? Milton was injured. Cox. Carter returning. 

DeVonta Quez Cam out. Goedert on injury report.

5-1 facing the Phins. Then Skins and Cowboys. KC, Bills. That whole part of your statement could be looking in real jeopardy. Looking at the schedule here. It’s that point in the season. Things will get ugly real quick if there isn’t a massive collective step up. Injuries obviously being huge hurdles.

What you said was really intelligent the other day.   " those other teams are also concerned about playing us"

As a fan, I think last year really was an awful thing for most fans.   This expectation of everything going right 100% of the time...easy wins...etc.  That was really a perfect storm last year...the league itself was awful...and our schedule just a fluke in the timing of how awful our opponents were.

But our QB has intangibles.   If his 2 tangibles get rolling.....1 see the field...2. Make the throw.   We can beat anyone...if healthy.

You seem so obsessed about winning in October and November here.   Sure they are going to lose some games coming up... that's the norm,  not like the fluke of last year

It's much more enjoyable when there is a challenge to overcome.   There is an opportunity to win...being afraid of the loss isn't the right way to live.    We got 5 wins...opportunity for 11 more... let's see how many we get.    The possibility of not getting them is what makes it fun.  Guaranteed wins.... what's the point?

For someone who was all jazzed up in 2021 to have that 9 win season...with that awful roster...it doesn't make sense the negative feeling towards this more talented team...especially with the young DL we will get to see play. 

How many injuries have we had so far?

You throw these injuries in the mix with 2 new coordinators.... it really stunts the chemistry and growth. 

They didn't play much preseason... bad weather....etc.   3 days rest game 2, after playing away at 4pm...    this week key injuries coming back from LA...  

We know the NFL is supposed to have all these variables that go into teams playing better or worse than expected.   

This year is normal...last year was not.   It's easy to predict the start of the season would be sloppy with all these factors... easy to see some losses coming up.    How we finish, especially with injuries...will be the key going into playoffs.  It's  not supposed to be a finished product or the peak right now.

I don’t necessarily see my feelings as grimy all negative. Jazzed on ‘21 team about them just making the playoffs. See this season as winning a playoff game. Goal is win the division for this bunch.

And they may lose...and the world still goes on next Monday.   An opportunity to upset Miami on Sunday night.   That's what we have

In 21..they didn't have one quality win.  At that point when I pointed out the fact that Halloween weekend 2019 in Buffalo...was the last time they beat a winning team that had their starting QB in the lineup... which I constantly said included Wentz and Doug... you took it as a shot at Hurts. 

This year they have an opportunity at some quality wins. Unlike 2021. 

 

Couldn’t be less optimistic this week considering we’ve only been delivered one loss. Don’t see us as on their level. Think we’re getting our butts kicked on Primtime!

We’re Favored by two points

Goal us Superbowl win.... with this bunch.   That's the goal.

The goal is to be disappointed each time you don't win the SB.   To lower the bar....well, it's like another way to call a cat a kitten!

What I pointed too mostly was: Siri surrendered playcalling after struggling so mightly against the good teams which were early part of the season lumped. Then the team took off under a Stechein. Hmmmm…might be coming up on some Deja Vu here.

This team has an outside chance to win it all. Of course the goal is win the SB for every team. Not very realistic though. If the goal is to win the SB this season? Gotta go ‘All In!’ Gotta trade for that S and LB. That’s not addressing any big injuries being faced ahead.

  I don’t think I’d pull the trigger to all that levels this season. Win the division. Don’t tighten down the cap so much going for it all right now.

Winning the division is no gimme. See the Cowboys as right with us.

Got the before the game opinion. During. And hindsight views. 

I care. Want Hurts to beat Tua! Looking like a stretch for me to even envision us winning this game right now.

The team beat bad teams...and didn't come close to beating good teams...in 2021.

The easy games came mostly toward the end. 

Too much worrying about stuff... 11 more games left, let's enjoy the season.  It's not our job to correct things.

Football and sports on general....is not supposed to be a gimme. 

Losers want gimmes.... winners want the challenge of competition. 

Dolphins.... 3 games on the road ... 80 points

3 games at home....142 points.

The city is on fire right now... the Linc isn't going to be an easy place to play, especially on a Sunday night!!!

The first part of the schedule in ‘21 were the best teams on the schedule. When Siri was playcalling. Then he relinquished it over to Stechein. Team started rolling. Formed it’s identity of being physical.

Last season it was such an obvious All In situation. Was very disappointed we didn’t win it all! Very! I can’t pretend like every different season I feel the same about that years squad. Had to win it last year. Looking like second tier of the NFC to me possibly this season. So could win it all if….

Goal is win it all. Expectations are try and beat the dang cowboys!

I don't understand anything you said here.

You always make it seem like the exact players of need are easily available?

I'm going to talk about your SF team...because it's your team as far as I'm concerned.   They looked like dog crap Sunday.   2 injuries to injury prone guys and the offense was awful.  

They get injuries every year...like clockwork.  Have been extremely healthy ...until Sunday.  The season has 11 more games to play.

You really think they avoid injury to where they look as good all the way through as they did early on?

We should get more healthy by the end.  We have more of a learning curve with the new coordinators and young players.

Realistically our best 2 defensive players and our best offensive player was out vs the Jets.

We downgraded big time on our OL vs a good DL of the Jets.  

To just take it as Bible that things stay the same...it's lazy.

Team started rolling when it played pathetic teams.... when the good teams came back in the mix we didn't come close.  Wasn't really offense,  the defense couldn't stop anyone decent.
