I don't really get into the who beat who and records, because they don't really matter. Look at Denver, they look NOTHING like the team we played and I don't think it was just because it was us they were playing. They were on fire in every facet. Manning was dropping passes like he did 10 years ago. I said he could do that for a game or 2 and I was nervous he'd get it together for us since it was after a bye. He hasn't completed a pass like that since and was benched.
When we played KC they had one of the best RB's in the league, he's not on the field anymore. The Lions certainly have the potential to be a much better team than their record indicates, they should have at least 1 more probably 2 more wins this year and that said, they tried everything possible to give us that game and we didn't want. We were 6-0 and since then our offense has looked like a 1 win team for about 5 weeks now. Our record says we're 6-3 now? i'm almost afraid to look because after that game it looks like we should have 10 more losses.
The only thing i'm certain of, is if we don't start playing better, much better on offense, it won't matter if we somehow get a wildcard spot, we won't last long in the post season. Playing like we have been, I'm not even confident we'd do that. It will take a lot of crappy play by other teams for that to happen.
The players and coaches are there to figure it out. They can be better, they just have to start making the plays. They're there and it always seems to be someone that breaks down and it never happens. They need to do their jobs on every play, all of them and our season will look a lot brighter, but until I see it things aren't looking so good.
