looking at that really shows how tough a schedule we have left. Denver at home the Gmen Wash, Carolina wow

Finally. The Giants ranked that high was ridiculous.

 

[Zman5]

I think Giants are still ranked too high.

It drives me crazy that Seattle is ahead of us.

 

[Portland Fanatic]

It drives me crazy that Seattle is ahead of us.

They have a pretty easy schedule to finish the year off too. I expect them to finish at least 12-4 with home field advantage all the way through the playoffs. They are tough at home....

Not me. Seattle is playing better than we are. They are playing weaker opponents tho. =)

They also beat us.... Thank you Mr. Bledsoe.

I liked Denver's pick up of Plummer...Still do.

That said, no way the Broncos are the second best team.

I think they are vastly over-rated.

They may be the first team ever to have two 1000 yard backs.

Well, they'd be the first in the last 20 years, anyway. The Browns did it in '85 or so, Mack & Byner.

Portland, Nolan Guaranteed the 49ers to win the West, just like Peterson Guarenteed a win over the Boys, don't you think the 2-7 Niners will make a run for the West? I figure they need to average 108 rushing yards a game. One play out of the Bears playbook will allow for this. hehahahahahaha

We also get to play the Chiefs in the 2nd half. Great, tough schedule the 2nd half! I am so sick of being in Charlotte and hearing about the Panthers. They are good, but I would love to be able to play the AFC East and NFC North this year. I pray we beat them on Christmas Eve. I can't take another Panther victory over the 'Boys in Charlotte!

lol....Oh those silly Niners. Gotta have something to hope for. It will be years before they are back...if ever.

I see the Niners and Green Bay in the tank for a long long time.

I don't think it's as tough as people make it out to be. We get the Lions next week in Dallas, followed by the Denver at home. Denver isn't as good on the road as they are at home, and they're not used to the short week.

After that, we get the Giants again, on the road but after a week and a half of rest (probably the biggest game of the year), then Kansas City in Dallas. If you watched KC get whipped by the Bills last week, you know they're not very good.

The schedule get's tougher from there, but this team will be 11-5 and win the division. I'd be nice to get a BYE week but that Seattle game is going to really hurt us at the end of the season.

And Miami before that in the 70's. Mercury Morris and Larry Csonka were the first dual 1000 yard rushers if I remember right.

Also the Steelers did it in the 70's with franco and Rocky.
