No repeat of 2007

This feels like after the Packers game in 2007, it was a Thursday night game between two 10-1 teams. We won 37-27 but Green Bay made a Mad Dash at the end to keep it close with a backup quarterback name Rogers. After that game we played poorly I think due to the emphasis that's was placed on that game it felt like a "Superbowl" to us.

I would just like the coaching staff and the front office to act like they did this before and should be here instead of throwing a parade for beating the New Orleans Saints.

I just don't want a repeat of the 2007 season when we finish the last four games 2-2 limp into the playoffs and lose in the first round we need to be picking up momentum at this time.

This team is in a very good place chemistry and mentality wise... they have each other’s backs, they are putting winning first, and they are young and hungry.

The goal of winning the division is in their sights but not secured yet— so they are set up for a nice run to the finish line.

They get to rest now on the mini bye (5 games in 25 days!) and they are getting healthier. This feels like it is coming together at the perfect time.

The NYG won 2 SBs peaking at this time of year and riding a hot young defense through the playoffs

You make a good point. The team was not the same after that game. They needed a minor miracle to beat a crap Detroit team. Got totally shut down by a crap Eagles team. But I'm not sure what caused that. Dallas was favored by almost 7 in that game. They were expected to win.

The T.O. injury also played a role.
