hahahahaha That worked about 13 or 14 times out of 17 a lot of years, and I'm expecting to see a lot of that going forward. It must really suck to have the mindset many in here have.

I agree. Its probably more fun to live in a fantasy world than the real world, but it allows me to objectively make better decisions, so I live in the real one.Originally posted by texaspackerbacker View Posthahahahaha That worked about 13 or 14 times out of 17 a lot of years, and I'm expecting to see a lot of that going forward.

Bretsky, if you can only take pleasure in winning championships, your life will not be rewarding. You gotta take your pleasures where you can get them. Are you going to turn your back in disgust because two hot lesbians who are French kissing naked are not scissoring??"The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

The CHI game and this latest DET game were the only wins that seemed convincing to me. NO was a fluky miss on a makeable FG, LAR had Brett Rypien at QB, and LAC beat themselves with drops and fumbles. This team is trending in the right direction, but 11-6 is a wildly optimistic expectation, given they are 5-6 and playing a much better KC team than LAC, DEN, or LV. KC's defense is underrated, and even though the receivers have let Mahomes down that offense is doing well by passing efficiency metrics, and they still have Mahomes.
It comes down to who on the OL will block Chris Jones, and whether you'd rather bet on Mahomes or a Joe Barry defense.
I called the NYG, CAR, CHI games winnable because they are. They could easily lose them if JLove goes on a interception bender or Justin Fields plays out of his mind (for example).
The other games are coin flips at best, although the Bucs game will be at Lambeau and that looks promising. GB has a bad track record in MIN at US Bank, and Josh Dobbs has kept the Vikes afloat better than most expected. I do not think GB beats KC, but I very much hope they are competitive in that and all their remaining games. This season was about seeing growth in the youngsters, I want that to continue into next season and beyond.
If they go 4-2 in their remaining games (lose to KC, beat NYG, TAM, CAR, lose to MIN, beat CHI) that puts them 9-8 and squarely in the hunt for a 7 seed in the playoffs. Might result in a 37-10 drubbing against SF in mid-January, but you never know.
This team went 8-9 last year and looked disinterested. I'd take 9-8, growing together and looking like a tough out with all that upside.

The Chiefs haven't looked all that inspired in some of their games this season - just good enough to win. I wouldn't bet on Joe Barry's D over Mahomes, but I'd consider betting on Love over the K.C. D. It will take a good almost inspired effort at home, but I certainly wouldn't bet against that.
Hopefully the Packers don't give these "tank" imbeciles any satisfaction.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

When you say HOT lesbians, are you referring to "eye candy hot" or "menopause hot flashes" ?Originally posted by Fritz View PostBretsky, if you can only take pleasure in winning championships, your life will not be rewarding.

LOL this is true.Originally posted by bobblehead View PostLosing to the defending Owl champions wouldn't be a tank you sufferless old fool.
Also, tank talk is just water cooler nonsense at this point. ARI, NE, CHI (via CAR) are in a much better position even if GB somehow was tanking. They're the 8 seed in the NFC; everyone knows they aren't tanking.

Yes.Originally posted by Sparkey View PostWhen you say HOT lesbians, are you referring to "eye candy hot" or "menopause hot flashes" ?
As for the remaining games, I still see this team going around 8 - 9. i don't think they can beat KC or Minny on the road, and I think someone else - TB? Chicago? Will upset them at home.
But if the offense continues to show growth, and if Devonte Wyatt particularly shows growth on defense (I'm waiting, Devonte), then it would be a satisfying season. Like seeing two hot lesbians french kissing."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."
