We have only up to go from here..

Before everyone runs half the team out of town, fires the GM and coaching staff, etc..

How about a moment to consider this:

Top 10 things about the 4 teams we lost to..

  1. They are a combined 16-4
  2. The top 3 are 13-2
  3. We almost beat the 4-1 Vikings if not for a missed extra point
  4. The Vikings only loss was the the Colts the following weekend
  5. We beat the Colts the week after that
  6. Chicago's only loss was to GB in GB
  7. Chicago has had 3 straight weeks with a INT for a TD so we arent alone.. their secondary is great.
  8. Houston is undefeated
  9. Houston, Chicago and the Vikings have 3 of the 6 top rated Defenses in the league
  10. Houston, Chicago and the Bengals are 3 of the top 6 in Sacks and QB Pressure

So maybe there is a reason we looked REALLY bad.. we played 4 REALLY good teams..


Now we play Oakland next week

  • They are: 1-3
  • They lost to San Diego (3-2), Denver (2-3), and Pittsburgh (2-2)
  • We don't have the worst Sack record in the league, Oakland does

I guess what I am trying to say, is that after the buy the schedule gets a lot easier. It's going to get better.. a Win in Oakland and maybe the clouds start to part on the bad first part of the season.

One can only hope..
