The only way we're going to improve on 3rd down is to stay out of 3rd and long situations. Have to avoid the penalties that keep putting us behind the chains and costing us some nice plays.

Agreed

Participation trophy? Sweet!

Yup, some don't realize that when you sit at 11-1.........expectations change. If we were 8-4 at that point, it would be a different situation. Sitting atop the NFL, there is no reason to settle, go for the title using whatever it takes!

Penalties lately have been very troubling.

I had high expectations in 2007. I don't have many this year. Never expected this season and am not going to panic if we lose. Losing year after year sort of numbs me to losing.

since we clinched a playoff berth I will say I am at a 3. We have at the very least clinched a playoff berth so nothing over 5 on this scale feels appropriate.

I have become numb myself, just saying that you don't play for a playoff appearance when you had/have the best record. Just because we weren't expected to be in this position doesn't mean it is okay if they go one and done........that is a failed season IMO.

I wouldn't like it but I wouldn't be as disappointed as I have in the past. I guess it depends how we look going forward.

I picked them but really with no conviction.

I just think Tampa is playing so well and this team has been struggling offensively for a few weeks now. If Dak was in year 3 or end of year 2 I would feel a lot better, but I'm afraid he's hit the rookie wall

True, depends how. If we lose HFA then lose first game.....I will have seen it coming anyways and move on. If we get #1 and lose first game, there is no telling how I will feel :lmao:
