oochymp 2,393 Posted October 15, 2012 (edited) okay, the team looks awful, there's no sugar coating it and one win against a banged up Pittsburgh doesn't mean all our issues are solved, but since the schedule came out I've fully expected a 2-4 start and still thought we could make the playoffs, we're through the toughest part of the schedule by far and I really think we still have a shot. Take a look at the rest of our schedule: @ Bills Colts Bears @ Dolphins Bye @ Jaguars Texans @ Colts Jets @ Packers Jaguars I see two that should be written in as losses (Texans and @ Packers) but the rest are very winnable, it's not going to be easy, but if we can play the rest of the season the way we did against the Steelers I think we've actually got a solid shot at the playoffs Edited November 7, 2012 by BayAreaBomber Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Bears look like the better team of those two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted October 15, 2012 I'd say the Bears are a write-in loss if you're counting the Packers as a loss. The Bears look like the better team of those two. main reason I'm writing in the Packers as a loss is Lambeau in December, but Chicago will definitely be the toughest beyond those two, either way tho, 9-7 is definitely in reach and could be enough to make the playoffs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
.AirMcNair. 1,232 Posted October 15, 2012 Locker would have to stay healthy. Not sure he can do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted October 15, 2012 (edited) one other note: the 4th 5th and 6th teams in the AFC are all 3-3 (down to the 8th if you want to go that far) only one game ahead of us, for as bad as we played through the first five weeks, we actually still have a pretty good shot at the playoffs IMO Edited October 15, 2012 by oochymp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC 331 Posted October 15, 2012 This is more about building than it is succeeding this year. I feel the same way about the Hawks. Build a rythem, let Locker get experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
housemd 338 Posted October 15, 2012 Looking at that upcoming schedule,I think the Titans have a decent chance to win at least 6 or 7 games.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karl 3 Posted November 7, 2012 (edited) The Titans wont go 9-7 lol. Bears, Texans, Packers all automatic losses which already puts you at 7-9 at best. maybe next time... edit: did not realize this was so old. teehee Edited November 7, 2012 by karl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
