Not quite sure honestly. I've seen some of their (Jags) games, and they're not a bad team at all. I like David Garrard . Besides, the Jags beat Indianapolis at home which Indy only lost because of poor defense. I'm just counting on end of season motivation pushing this team to get a 2nd win in Nashville. Plus, this teams seems to rally after bad losses which I predict the Ravens will give us, so that's why a sweep of the Titans.
as long as this team has gary kubiak coaching it they will never win a superbowl. he's lucky our expectations are relatively low. f***ing idiot.
I know the Jets look intimidating, but they are very beatable. All 4 of these games are winnable, but they're all very losable as well. I'm most concerned with the Titans, honestly, since VY and Britt apparently practiced a little bit this offseason. As is the case with every game, it's all about gameplan and execution. We have the talent on the team to win all 4 of these, but after last night's showing, I have absolutely no faith in our coaching staff's gameplanning. I say we go 1-3. SD- W JAC-L NYJ-L TEN-L
i could see 3-1 in the next 4.....i think they take care of biz at home and then split the Jax and jets game
"taking care of business at home" just means we'll lose. We're 6-6 at home in the last 2 years. 4 of those wins were last year against Sea, Oak, a 3-point win against....SF (LOL) and a meaningless win against NE. This year, we gave the cowboys their only win of the season.
This team is only good enough to have a chance at every game, they arnt good enough to doominate and expect to win any game, my bet......8-8, no playoffs
Took the words out of my mouth. No sense worrying about if a coach is good enough to win a super bowl if he can't even get you into the playoffs.
I just can't put faith into this team to show up and give us a B game each week. Playoff teams don't repeatedly throw away games with D level showings, but that's something Kubiak just isn't in a hurry to fix. It's okay to have a practice field intensity on Sunday with McNair and Kubiak holding you accountable. I don't hold the Giants game against them, since that might have been a loss even with a solid effort. The Dallas game, however, was unacceptable, inexcusable, and indefensible. It was a microcosm of the Kubiak era, a great explanation for anyone wondering why we missed the playoffs last year. I've mentioned it before, but our division record in the past 3 seasons is 4-14 (now 5-15), with us never earning more than 2 wins in a single year. Besides history, division games are almost always a bear, even when they look lopsided on paper. It's the "playing ball against your brother/best friend" scenario - no one knows you better or how to frustrate you better. Jax may be awful this year, but checking off two wins against them is optimistic. In the absolute best scenario, I could see us managing 10-6 (losses @Titans, @ NYJ, and either @PHI or BAL). In the worst case scenario? 6-10 (swept by Titans, split with Jags, losses to NYJ, BAL, Phi, SD) At this point I'm expecting a 7 or 8 win season. I fully expect at least one or two more mind-numbing diarrhea games. It's negative of me, but I think the Dallas turd bomb followed by last night's loss has knocked us out of the wild card hunt.
for now...i agree Theres a real chance the Texans can go 3-1 over the next 4 and climb right back in the hunt Maybe Im biased but I think that Jets game is the only game that is one you have to chalk up as a loss. They can beat SD and Tenn at home (they are as good or better than both)...and they SHOULD beat Jax Looking past those 4 games, it seems almost imperative to go 3-1 or better seeing as how games @ Tenn and vs Balt (which at that point could potentially be a HUGE game in terms of tiebreakers) loom
hate to say it but yous speaks the truth...tough games remaining and they have to win the division, period...
Talent wise .. . they were better than the Colts. The colts had 2 maybe 3 advantages: QB, D-Line and maybe Coach Their QB >> Schaub Rocket River
We'll beat Jacksonville. We are capable of beating San Diego (likely) and Tennessee (less likely). The Jets will obliterate our offensive line. I'd say 2-2, fingers crossed for 3-1.
No one gives Indy's coach any credit for anything . . . . it is all Peyton all the time. Rocket River
QB edge Colts RB edge Hou WR/TE edge Colts....Andre is the best of the bunch, but on the whole, Indy has a better crew (and the loss of Clark didnt hurt them nearly as much as most expected) OL edge Colts DL edge Colts DB even (even tho Indy had a pick 6 so this is generous) LB maybe slight edge Hou? ST = even Coaching edge Colts
Are their receivers better. . .or was they system receivers working within the system and with the QB. Who was their Tight End last nite? He was better than Daniels and Dresseen? Isn't their O-line busted up too. Again I am wonder if they just have a better system . . or at least a better coached on. They been together forever . . oops. . I forgot Duane Brown . . u win. Their DB's - imo mediocre. Helped by a strong Dline. That pick 6 was good Dline - Bad Decision and Bad throw Didn't see anything special about either special teams. They have the better kicked. . . but that is based on Venetarie's history. The colts have a coach???? I thought it was all Peyton all the time *grin* Rocket River
OD and Dreesen had 1 catch for 8 yds combined Tamme had 6 for 60 and a TD well i guess hip bone connected to the thigh bone.....and so on...so their D overall is better/more talented....at least it seemed that way last night...
