I think if we come out stale on offense that Linehan gets the boot. Not sure if it will be immediately or the end of the season but he would be gone.
This game certainly seems like a benchmark game. If we lose this game we would fall to 3 and 5 and be almost eliminated from playoff contention. I would expect the Cowboys to bring their A Game on Monday night. In fact it should be, on paper, a total beat down of the Titans.
4 and 4 keeps you relevant and at least gives you hope, that if you play reasonably well in the second half of the season that you can get to 9 and 7 (that's easily doable) and depending on how things shake out you have a chance at winning the division and making the playoffs.
The next two games are HUGE. The Titans get you back to .500 and a win over Philly makes it a two horse race with Washington for the division (at that point in the season at least.)
If we come out flat either game, (and we lose) someone is getting fired.
