lol the Patriots have played an even softer schedule, yet everyone on this damn forum has them blowing us out...
Exactly. That Philly team that gave them trouble yesterday we blew out.

Not saying we are going to take care of them, but their schedule has been really pitiful.

And Brady, while mentally still great has some physical limitations that are beginning to show!

He sure proved it yesterday, not a single RB not paid 90 million could have done what he did minus the other 31 starting RB’s in the league, Pollard and a few back ups.

It takes a special RB to fumble on the first carry resulting in giving the other team a TD but than get all sorts or credit for getting the TD back on a low pass against the 3rd worst defense in the league.
You're absolutely right. The set up for that joke was too good to pass up though. You need to relax and laugh occasionally.

Who they've played and beaten only serves to project who they could beat, if they make the playoffs and nothing is certain at this point. One thing that does seem certain at this point is that they will ride the offense as far as it will take them.

If they win the division, they will get one home game. The question is, which of these teams would you want at home instead of going to their place? SF, SEA, GB, MIN or NO? The Cowboys have already lost to 3 of them and 2 at home.

He and his receivers are struggling for sure but as you said, something not right with him. He missed quite a few wide open targets yesterday.

The good news is; no team looks unbeatable at this point. I think the Vikings are the most dangerous team right now because they can win games without playing particularly well.

There will be a dark horse that emerges in the playoffs. A team that gets on a post Thanksgiving roll and carries that momentum into into January.

Could it be the Cowboys?

Excellent point.......it usually always comes down to teams playing the best post T'giving ball and the healthiest.

I don’t like laughing and I’m really fun at parties.

And of it was truly meant for me. Touche!

BS. I was a fan in the 70's and 90's. No one walked around saying, "Man, that win sucked". Fans were happy whenever the Cowboys won. Maybe because they weren't pushing a "This QB sucks" agenda.
We checked the box and moved on. It wasn't a story if we beat a 3-win team. It was a story if we didn't.

Winning the division and a home wildcard game would be quite an achievement for this 2019 team.

You mean those times with unlimited Cap Space. Yeah it was easy to win back than when your Owner opened the Bank on whatever Contract he wanted to give away.

This is an Any Given Sunday League now with only a few Teams being constantly very good each year. Actually it might just be the Pats lol.

The Patriots, Steelers, Ravens, Packers, Saints, and Seahawks have done pretty darn well with a salary cap.

I agree but that's not going to be enough for the majority of posters here.

The key to this season isn't who they've played but who they're going to be playing and seeing if they can elevate the play in the crunch time of the season.

I do not think they can beat NE but they cannot get spanked. They need to stand toe to toe and make it tough on NE. That can boost the confidence in this D for the next 4 games.

PHL's ability to field a worthy team is questionable. They played their butts off yesterday and they were outgunned. They're not good enough to run an offense through their two TE's. And they're the team in the East with the overrated QB.

I see it this way we lost to

NO -2
Gb-7
jets-2
Vikes-4
=15

so 4 games lost by 15 points TOTAL, a few could have gone the other way with a few different bounces or less bad calls, so play them all again and I bet we could easily be 8-2 or 9-1

I know you are what your record says you are BUT IMO we are better and can beat the better teams.. we shall see as we let the season play out..

Im not blind we have issues especially on defense not stopping the run and a few games we cant run.. coaching for sure but I saw us go from 3-5 to 4-5 to 5-5 to 6-5 to a10-6 season we are at 6-5 now I hope we can go 4-1 , its a lot to ask but we did it last year.. I have hope.. im fan and not going to sit here and bash the team or micro diagnose who we beat or not beat lay to play or series to series..

its what lies ahead thats important.. this isnt colleges we are leading the division and can make the playoffs if we hold on and get better..
