Hail Flutie Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 With Manuel coming back, CJ seemingly healthy, our D improving, and a cushy schedule left, why not? I feel like if this coaching staff is the real deal, they should be firing this team up to play to their potential and win out the season. They've been in every game except one. If they can go 5-6 before their bye, what's stopping them from being 9-6 going into Foxboro? Imagine that? It would be the most meaningful game this franchise has played in 10+ years. Between Kyle Williams, Fred Jackson, and Eric Wood this has to be floating around in the locker room. In my opionion its up to Doug Marrone to prove he's not just a PR sound bite machine like every other loser coach who talks a big talk but can't motivate his players. Am I being delusional, or who else has silently had this conversation with themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibs Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Everything is possible.......but this is highly improbable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRW Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 One game at a time. I don't see any reason to look ahead to the end of the year at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Everything is possible.......but this is highly improbable. Perhaps if you just look at the actual win-loss record after nine games. But if you consider that each of those nine games was a moral victory.....the longest such streak in the league (the Chiefs win last week was actually a moral defeat for them, leaving them at 8-1 morally)......how soon can it be before they start stringing together immoral victories?

We must be the most moral team in the league at this point... at least better than the Fins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwig van Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 8-8 or 9-7 is more realistic Just might be good enough for a wildcard at 9-7 Go Buffalo!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bags Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Yeah, kinda like the team was 9-6 back in Jan. 2005 when we went into the last game agains the Steelers' 3rd and 4th string. You mean like that 9-6? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, the Chefs are more like 5-4 morally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in Syracuse Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Fans can look ahead and speculate all they want. The team better just focus on Pittsburgh. Kyle Williams said just get one win and then think about the next game. Just beat Pittsburgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dayman Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I see the reality that we have been in all these games. I also see the schedule soften up big time down the stretch. Bottom line is EJ would have to play like a great 1st round pick for us to do that. If that happens...I'll be happy. But I doubt that happens.

Are you really concerned about a 3-6 team that hasn't made the playoffs in 13 years looking past an opponent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsBytheBay Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 How much money would you be willing to bet on this outcome? he asked why not. Not that he would bet on it. I see his point. I hope EJ, and CJ can give that push. For me, it hinges more on EJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
