My theory from day one was that Ben Johnson was Peters's preferred pick all along. The Kyle Shanahan to his John Lynch. But after he spurned us and had some bad interviews you gotta go with the only guy left who can at least network and build a staff and had a good interview. Its not that he...
11 will still get us in. I don't think 10 is enough. Losing yesterday was huge as it would have bought us margin of error. Now we have almost none. Philly is almost a guaranteed L so we have to win every other game.
"paloffs is now"
So I went ahead and looked at every drive yesterday before the score went 20-9(because after that it was obvious pass only downs the rest of the way). On all those drives we went:
First drive:
3rd and 12-converted jd running
3rd and 7 incomplete after 1st down 3 yard completion and 2nd down 0...
The truth is: this isn't a good football team. We're regressing to where our talent level should have us. We won games early due to facing terrible teams and Daniels playing at an MVP level. He wasn't gonna sustain that level(he's not terrible now, just kinda a normal rookie with some flashes of...
Smells like 9-8. We'll beat someone else along the way and probably win a meaningless game in the finale in Dallas. We're not gonna finish with 8 losses in a row, even Jim Zorn after a 6-2 start still managed 2 more wins.
9-8 finish and we're out of the playoffs because Tampa has the...
Nothing more to say than that was one of the most embarrassing and pathetic games I've ever seen this team play and that's saying something. The offense was legitimately complete trash other than a couple good Daniels runs. We literally did not complete a single pass on 3rd down and had NO plays...
Its time to get back on track. We can't just eek out a close win. We need to beat the crap out of them. The good thing is we've shown this year we can destroy the terrible teams(except the Giants for some reason).
I want to end our freaking shutdown drought too. Haven't had one since '91. If...
Hammies are tricky. There is nothing you can do but rest until you recover. There is no "playing thru it" or you risk hurting it even more and then you're really screwed.
Who to root for this week:
Chicago over Minnesota. Bring the Vikes down a bit. Bears winning isn't relevant since they're below .500 at the moment plus we have the tiebreaker on them.
New England over Miami. Just for the better draft pick.
Green Bay over San Francisco. This is where its a...
Hi all. If you're an ES regular you'll recognize me, I am Warhead36. I made my account name fast and typo'd and typed 37 so I guess I've upgraded and now I'm Warhead 37 lolol.
Looking forward to reuniting with the regulars and meeting all the new folks. HTTC.
