I hear ya.... but its not how you start the season... its how you finish. I cant put ALL THAT IMPORTANCE on the first game of the year... division rival or not.
I agree. But we haven't exactly started well the past few years. We were around .500 the last three years or so during the first Q of the season, right?
Anyway....this type of game is one that we've been folding on lately.
Both of last year's games vs Philly we folded.
The first Giant's game we folded.
The game vs the Saints we folded.
Games that could really give us a good start, or put us over the top seem to elude this team. And it seems that when we get in these games, we get our butt-kicked.
I really have no confidence in this game. I actually have more against the Bears. It's a game where we're expected to lose, so our guys won't feel pressure.
I'm not sure what's been missing....maybe it's toughness...maybe it's the fact the team was so uptight with BP....
