There are no more statement games.. We need to win more games than we lose from this point forward.

It's really that simple.

We need to go 6-4 at worst with remaining schedule.

Here's the way I look at it -- the NFC East hasn't been this ripe for the taking in 20+ years. If we can't win the division this year, we are hopeless. And frankly, it would hurt a lot less than in past years because in the past I've always caught myself saying "If only..." and it was generally related to the health of key players on the team, convincing myself that if a couple of key guys were healthy, it would have made all the difference in the world. None of that this year -- we are either good enough to win this division or we aren't. But if we aren't, I will be blissfully free of excuses and what ifs.

FWIW, I think we win the division fairly easily this year and that includes beating the Eagles by a good margin this week.

Sad that we have come to hope for 9-7 record. At this point that would put us in play for who, GB, NO, ATL?

Agreed.

I will take 9-7 record then Super Bowl win over getting to 11-5 or 12-4 and blowing chunks in playoffs.

Right now just deal with Philly and come out of there at 4-3 and a clean sweep of the NFC East on the 1st go around.
