Yes, no easy task, and we did it to ourselves losing three games we had no business losing if not for self inflicted issues. Our best hope with NE is if they lose one more and its also a divisional game. Assuming we beat them, they would have 1 divisional loss and we would have 2. Also assuming neither of lose prior to that game, then we would have the same record, but they hold the tie breaker with the 1 divisional loss. So, if they do lose a game, then hopefully its in the division, because that gives us breathing room if we do something stupid and lose another game, like the Phily game for example. At least then we would still be tied and they no longer have the tie breaker on divisional record. If they do lose another game and its not in the division, then we would have to win out as only way to get the division.

This. We can get even out the head to head and record with NE when we rematch. But only if we win our games before then. But even then NE still has the tie breaker as they are 2-0 in the division and we are 2-2. So even if we beat NE and tie their record, they will be 2-1 and we would be 3-2. I am not worried about a Wildcard, there is little doubt we will get in with at least a wild card. We need to win the division at the very minimum if not still get the 1 seed. Both are very much still in play. This isn't a team that needs to play 3 road playoff games. Not with this defense and not with roller coaster Josh we have this year. We need to get the division and we need to push for the 1 seed.

No doubt the defense has issues, but we would be up 2-3 scores right now had we not had the two bad turnovers, the missed wide open TD throw, etc

Comparing one game to whole seasons makes total sense right

Yet we have scored more points when he is not. So the record, his MVP trophy case, and our Points Per Game say otherwise.

That too. But we should be up if not for the dumb mistakes by the offense

How is the run D this bad. Its wild. Im ready for regime change if they cant get their s**t together and fast

People wanted this. They wanted the old Josh. Well here you go, you got him. The guy who led the league in turnovers over his first 4 years or what not. The guy who pushes the ball when he shouldn't be. I mean Ty is wide open for the easiest first down, who according to Josh is the best 3rd down back in the NFL, yet he isn't even looking for him on 4th and 2 and instead trying to first look down field.

And on 4th and 2 - WTF is he looking to push the ball down field, just get the first down.

Anyone still want to argue Josh is playing great and not a big part of the issue in these losses? I love Josh, but damn, this is on him right now.

His stats are better this year at the same time as last year. But I will say his decision making, footwork, pocket presence and vision all seem to be inconsistent this season even though statistically he still produces.

“After successfully freeing the Detroit Lions from ‘The Curse of Bobby Layne,’ Peyton Manning gets ambushed by former Buffalo Bills wide receiver Steve Tasker and the Bills Mafia, who demand Peyton lift ‘The Buffalo Sports Curse.’" Um whose gonna tell him...they have the same number of SB trophies as the Bills. Given they were snake bitten with injuries all year in their best season for a SB win maybe in franchise history last year, I am not seeing how he lifted their "curse". lol

Well if I had to watch this team on film I would have a drinking problem too

I mean his career average is almost 15 ypc, so not sure why its not that realistic. And TB isn't a great Secondary, so he can easily get a 20+ yard catch in this game. With both Kincaid and Palmer out, I think he gets a little more deeper looks than some of the short stuff they throw him on check downs this game.

Love the optimism but I don't that is very realistic the way we use him. A more realistic optimistic stat line might be more like 5 rec, 77 yards, and a TD. My expectation - 3 rec, 48 yards, 0 TDs. I think this is going to be a big Cook game. Down Palmer and Kincaid, I have a hard time seeing Brady looking to dial up the passing game unfortunately. A guy I do like streaming this week in DFS is Shakir though. I think Shakir ends up with like 7-8 catches, 80-100 yards and a TD.
