I think Sunday is definitely a must-win...

[bigdog10]

We will beat the Jags by 10+

You can take that to the bank.

[Mr. Scot]

What was last year?

A pre-building year :D

(or a Mongolian Cluster @%, depending on your perspective)

[Herb]

A must win for sure. Reminds me of the Bills game from 09... that we lost. But this year is different! I really expect us to dominate the Jags.

[CardiacCats]

Yeah, this really is a huge game. We should be 2-0 right now but instead we're 0-2....we can't outplay a team and lose again. If Cam doesn't beat the Jags he will heavily be criticized by the media and other fans who still don't want the guy to succeed, and it's not fair to Cam, he's a rookie but I just don't want it to hurt his confidence.

What I'm looking more forward to is how this team performs in a situation where we "should" win as opposed to "could" win. With Arizona on the road and the world champs in our house we were underdogs and we were able to play loose. Now I think we are probably favored and people will be looking for Cam to win a game he should. I remember with fox it never seemed like we showed up for these situations (e ps ttys Tampa Bay Monday night game) so I would like to see how well Rivera has these guys prepared and if they come out ready to play.

It's only a must win for PFFL, since going 0-3 all but eliminates you from the Playoffs. But that small percentage chance left will only make him troll us more.

What the heck happened to just looking for a win and being pissed if we don't get it? What happened to you guys? Man I hope this doesn't become the trend for this board.

2013: "Well we started 2-6, this year, as is customarily expected, but I really wanna talk about the positives and point out that this team has come such a long way and we are so close to being fully and completely built. "

I'd rather have the over-reactions. I'd rather have the crazies than have guys that talk like JOHN FOX! I thought we were rid of him for good, but oh no, his spirit lives on, it seems.

You guys were more pissed off, screaming bloody murder and asking for heads on a platter when we couldn't win with Moore's and Clausen's offense last year. How can you not be pissed if we don't win with our offense this year?

The best season u can ask for is to be able to beat the teams u should and steal a couple from those who are supposedly stronger than u.

[Kettle]

Because the season will be practically over. Nearly impossible to make the playoffs after 0-3.

This affects players and fans.

Fans that expect to make the playoffs this year are idiots. No exceptions.

Sunday a must win? No. Could win? Yes. We could win them all!

This history of the NFC South from one year to the next would like a word with you.

I'll be sure to bring the history of the league along with me.

Sunday a must win? No. Could win? Yes. We could win them all!

Fans that expect to make the playoffs every year, after only 2 games, are idiots.

Personally I'm more concerned about this Sunday. But I think those that don't care at all to even hope for the playoffs this year, with this team, and have given up completely after only two games are even bigger idiots.

Yes, for those that care and want us to be in the race....Sunday is a must win.

Expecting a playoff appearance this year is just asking to be let down. There is to much that needs to gel for that to happen. Not saying it can't but its highly unlikely.

From a realistic viewpoint, I'd look for the playoffs next year at the earliest.

[PanthersPhan18]

There are no must wins in a rebuilding year.

Every game is a must win for me.
