We Got No Help From Our NFCS Foes...

I am not worried about ATL untill we play them.

 

Last time we played them we crushed them 34-3. A game to win the division and the loser goes home.

Our locker room had the tougher players that left it on the filed and took care of business, and ATL folded. They may be better this year, but one year will not improve them enough to overcome how much more of a physical and dominant team we are compared to them. This is our division, they have to take it from us.

all due respects, the 2014 Falcons were seriously depletes due to injuries and I know that is part of the game...

but...they were picked to win the division two years running and going into a must-win situation in every game they play, they have survived...even with diversity. I mean, that int to seal the deal was not much different than our own wins thanks to J-No.

Being healthy, I don't see them folding...neither do I see NO folding with Brees' running the offense behind that fat-bong-headed DC in NO. 

We need some help to get some distance in front of Philly, STL, Sea, NYG and ATL/NO for that wild card spot. 

I know we can beat at least 3 of our four next opponents and if that happens, we are definitely going playoffs.

take away the Bucs garbage time td and it wouldn't have been.

I can by that. TB is not a bad team. Srsly...our division is a lot tougher this year than last year. 

We have the talent to compete against anyone and if we can ever get 100% healthy, we could be favorites in any game on paper. 

Worst case scenario, we're competing against Sea, Rams and Philly/Giants. Best case scenario, we win our division and get a bye. 

We do control our own destiny. I think we own Dallas, Cards and Will be a 50/50 split vs Sea...the one that wins that game and wins their division gets home playoffs throughout.

forgot about that Dickson fumble-grab for the score as well as the pick six for J-No. 

Take those two opportune plays and we look pedestrian...even against the Bucs

who's to say we wouldn't have scored that drive anyway. In the second half I feel like we dominated. I can see taking away the points for the fumble that's a freak play, but why take away the pick six? It was earned. Great call and great execution, it wasn't a fluke play.

We are just lucky Dickson was in the right place at the right time...they don't call us the cardiac cats for nothing. I'm just saying...We were playing against Tampa...I mean, c'mon man!! 

I have no problem with winning the games we are supposed to win, because that means we're taking care of business. That's great. Despite "any given Sunday."

what happens when we start truly being underdogs, that's when our true team will put up or shut up. 

Truthfully, it worries me more that we have had such close games against middle-of-the-road teams, in which we were favorites. 

I don't want to sell our team short, but at the same time, I'm looking at things in perspective...to where we go up against opponents who are already at the type of play-style where we'll need to be to win our division and can hang with the GBs, Seattles and Atl's in our schedule. We haven't been tested like that yet and I honestly don't know how we'll respond.

Having said all that's been said, it sure would be nice to get some help from our NFCS foes by racking-up some losses.

They'll pick up the necessary losses when we play them.

By the way, what are you doing in your profile picture? It looks like some kind of expert level nose picking move.
