Week 9 discussion.

But he did engineer and lead the game winning drive.

All im saying is that IF i make the playoffs and start Wild Card week with a healthy McMurray, i've got as good a shot as anybody. Thats all.

Yeah, but it's not like i've ever really had that.

If my defense didn't melt down on 3rd down this season, you wouldn't even have to worry about the 'ifs' of the postseason, i'd have the division locked down IMO. I don't let up a lot of passing yards a game, but it seems like every important 3rd down play even on 3rd and 8+, I give up the first down.

It's the biggest reason i've lost a few of the games i've lost.

I wonder if that's just a fluke, or there really is something wrong with my 3rd down defense and i'm doomed to deal with this for the rest of the season.

This season has been very difficult for me to enjoy because I feel like I assembled a good enough defense to get the job done. Boy was I wrong. Sims and Mangrum are having good years statistically, but I can't stop anyone.

I've told myself that I'm going to try and stop myself from getting so into my team. Obviously easier said than done. I just want to make the damn playoffs. How hard can that be?

I hope someday I can figure out what the hell I'm doing and actually get this team somewhere

Tobias Stanfield just pummelled us today. I thought I did enough as far as preparing for the pass, and then he lights us up. Just a dominating performance. Our defense has be bitch slapped all season. I've got to figure out what the hell to do.
Crespo got stuffed for a loss on 2 key 3rd and 1's. I'm just happy the division is tight and we still have a chance.

Good game Jester. Sorry for breaking Wing's leg. Don't look forward to seeing you again this year, but if it happens I'll be extatic

Thanks, Matt! Now I'm only 4 games behind you in career stats! :shock: :x
