1: We're 13-2. That's the second best record in football.

2: We're 7-0 on the road. Only other undefeated road team? New England. Only 5 teams have gone undefeated on the road since the merger.

3: Our "pathetic" defense has given up a grand total of 23 points the last two weeks and has 8 sacks. They are second in the entire NFL in sacks this season.

4: We beat a good team who was fighting for their playoff lives in their house with varous injuries to our starting QB, receiver, center, and cornerback and our starting safety suspended.

5: We're 13-2. That's tied for the most wins in franchise history.

6: We've played our worst football all year the last 3 weeks, and have still managed to go 2-1 with both wins coming on the road against desperate teams.

7: Did I mention the whole us being 13-2 thing?

I know, I know, damn me for bringing logic and reason into this cesspool of negativity and outrage. I just figured some needed to be reminded of the reality of our current situation before taking a razor to their jugular.

Well sure if you are going to be reasonable about it.

Actually I think we are 4-1 if you count Carrie Underwood from last season. Carrie somebody or other. It was another blonde CW singer anyhow.

you just said we have played our worst football the last 3 weeks. thankfully they were all against awful teams. i wonder how far our worst football will get us in the playoffs? if they arent careful the bye might give em a loss.

And GB also lost to the only team with a winning record they've played in the last 6 weeks

Well, we lost to the Eagles last week who are 6-8. They're blowing teams out that are below their talent level, and we just lost to a 6-8 team.

In our last six weeks we've played 5 out of 6 teams with a non winning record. We lost one, and have won the others by a combined 44 points, with the majority of them coming in the Jets game. The Packers last six wins they have won by a combined 109 points.

Or how about the fact that in the first 7 games we won 5 of them by double digits. Over the last 8 weeks we have won 4 by double digits, including none in since the GB game. On the flip side, GB has won its last 6 of 7 by double digits.

I'm not saying GB is better than us (we beat them, that says it all) but they are playing better football than we are as of late. Warning facts behind.

I appreciate your attempt to inject a few facts into the hysteria, but at the same time, if some of the Chicken Littles in here feel like taking a razor to their jugulars, who are we to discourage them??

FWIW, I think you should have mentioned that we're 13-2... :D

we all know we're 13-2. do you think people are worried because of the way we got to 11-1? or the way we went from 11-1 to 13-2. everybody here was happy with the 11-1 team. the current team is much worse.

It literally STUNS me how often I have come to this board after wins this year only to see chicken little after chicken little posting about how worthless this team is.

I always figured that's how you know which Aggies fans also follow the Cowboys...

The Eagles are a much better team than either the Rams or Raiders. So is Carolina.

How can you be, you have been here since inception and have what 50000 posts. You have seen it for years. Many posters here are idiots who would rather lose so they can complain. We are winning so they have to complain that we aren't winning by enough.
