Well I will hold onto my beginning of the year prediction that we go 9-7 so that means three more losses. I will give those to the Saints, Panthers, and Bears. We'll see what happens. The parity is insane this year.

7-1

i think we can go 7-1, but 6-2 is more likley

IMO the Packers are going to hand the Lions loss number 16 of the season that game. Its been great, one of my best friends is a big Lions fan.

5-3.

---

My first thought was 6-2, but after looking at the list of games, I think 5-3 is more likely.

All Right!

Finally a SUPER fan like me!

+1

We are going to win the rest of 'em! If you don't believe you are going to win, why even play the game ?

There is a difference in hoping that the team wins them all. I hope they win them all. But when I look at it realistically it probably isn't going to happen. I think your looking at it more like a player looks at it. You dont play the game. So your post should probably read "If you don't believe you are going to win, why even WATCH the game?"

I AM looking at it realistically.

I don't see anyone that we can't beat... I, like the players, take it one game at a time. So in looking at it one game at a time, I think we can win EVERY game.

I think we will have a good second half if we keep our players healthy.

Carolina's two losses came on the road and they have only had three road games all year so far. We will catch them on the third road trip in four games and the second of two in a row on the road. Always tough to win in that situation. The home team winning percentage in this scenario certainly favors us here.

The Saints are now without Grant on the DL who was their best defensive player on a very average unit. They win throwing it with their RB's beat up and that's our strongest suit. I think we can score enough and shut them down just enough in their passing game to win.

I would say the worst case scenario is we lose one of these two but both games are certainly winable. We need to beat the Vikes Sunday and then get over the hump with the Bears at home. We do that and get some momentum going I believe we will get past Carolina.

We went from one of the most beat up teams to one of the healthiest and if we can keep away from guys going down the list of players on other teams is growing every week. Who's healthiest always plays a big factor in the second half of the NFL season.
