I will take the win but it means nothing if they can't get a split of these next 4

Beating up on a 0-6 team doesn't impress me at all when the defense have not shown they can stop a team with a good offense all season. So going 2-2 in the next 4 means they have a real shot at a wildcard in the NFC and that would be more impressive. It would be impressive because it would mean the defense was able to stop Cousins, Alex Smith, Matt Ryan or Carson wentz led offenses.

Never understand people immediately raining on a good win.

The problem is that our “D” will not be able to stop any of those teams. Don’t let what you seen today foul you. It is what it is!

We are going to have to outscore each of them and that is going to be tough, very tough!

Don't forget Tyreek Hill; too. He can take a five yard dumpoff from Smith and turn it into a 75 yard touchdown.

And they may have the best tight end in the game. KC is loaded w/weapons on offense.

We probably want to be around 10-6 to get a WC spot(let's just assume,for the best, we aren't getting a 1st round bye lol). That means 3 more losses.

If we go 2-2 in this stretch, then we have

-Chargers(definitely winnable, although they looked really good on D today)
-Washington(also winnable)
-@NY(should win as well)
-@Oakland(Really depends on how Carr is playing, dangerous game here)
-Seattle(will be a pretty tough game)
-@Philly(very tough game)

If we go 2-2, I'm not too confident we can go through this six game stretch with only one loss(depends on how we play). The tough road ahead will tell a lot. If we go 3-1, I'm a bit more confident.

I'm meeting with a Vodou council in a few days from now, down in New Orleans.
Research stuff for what I'm doing now.

You think I'm not going to solicit them and use myself to lean their *******ized Catholic Saints to our favor?

My soul brooks no shame when the intention is true. I'll happily walk that road of bones and not worry about the crunch. Water off a duck's back.

No Fear, Go Cowboys.

True but 2-2 out of that 4 game stretch to me would be very impressive. I agree 3-1 would be best but would anyone be upset if we are 5-5 after those 4 games?
The only way I am happy with 2-2 is of the skins beat philly tomorrow and we beat skins and philly

The way the offense has been rolling, only the game at Atlanta scares me right now. I know the Cowboys are only 3-3, but they've resembled the 2016 team offensively ever since the second half of the Cardinals game way back in week three.

With the defense even playing marginally better than they did in the losses to the Rams and Packers, I like Dallas' chances. Maybe this 49ers game also serves as a confidence booster.
I agree, the Dallas offense appears to be hitting it's stride, however if something should happen in regards to Elliott, then things could change. But as it stands right now, If the defense can chip in, then Dallas should be in every game they play, with a chance to win many of them.

Yeah 3-1 over the next 4 is necessary to really have a serious shot at a wildcard.

If we do go 3-1 during that stretch, let the lone loss be to the Chiefs since it is out of conference.

I'm like the team and will enjoy this one for the next 48 hrs. With the way the league is these days nothing is easy anymore and we just stomped them.
