This team is good enough to put other teams away. Like the 96 team did. Did they get beat in 96? Sure. They got creamed in Indianapolis. Still, they didn't consistently let shitty teams hang around, then end up narrowly beating them or having some fluke disaster strike to lose the game. They also didn't have to barely squeak into the playoffs.
I'd just like to see them blow the Broncos out of the water, but something tells me that "flukes" will happen and the Broncos will hang around to the very end.

You know what that tells me? That it doesn't amount to crap HOW teams win the games early on in the season. What matters is accumulating enough wins in the early season to be in the playoff picture, then hitting stride late in the season just like we did.

Gameday Chat is a place where for some, sensibility goes to die.

Gameday Chat is also a place to go to learn a great deal about the game of football. Thanks to the special people who contribute a great deal of knowledge about the game.

Your bias drips from your keyboard. You rail against the negativity that manifests in the chat room, while passing completely over the raucous moments of rejoicing that also occur. Has it ever occurred to you the emotional roller coaster of football is precisely what attracts some people to the sport? If people wanted to be pretty Pollyannas the entire time, they'd be attracted to something less raw, masculine and primal. Something like -- oh, I don't know -- tennis.

I'm actually on record as saying that loss was a fluke. Point being that, when you are a clearly superior team, it is better to shut the door on lesser teams, rather than consistently letting them hang around.
