In every game I've watched Carolina play this year theyve looked like crap but I continue to be pessimistic about this game as I have been all year. This team is built to beat us.

Bring him in as offensive coordinator then Not happening, but we can dream.

Love the optimism, but right now let's just win a game first before we talk about running the table and overcoming a two game deficit to win the division okay? Hopefully the Eagles lose tonight and we take care of business the rest of the way out.

Robbins has two picks too

That was one of the funnest 4 game stretches of my life. Hope we get it going again.

Not counting on either of those things to happen. We go 9-7 while they go 11-5.

You said it a month ago about Plax and him supposedly turning around. "Winning is a great deodorant." It's only a matter of time... I hope

Not on third and 8 you won't. We need to be a bit more realistic about Moss. It's going to take 2-3 weeks to get into playing mode. Same with Osi. I had a feeling all he'd do was provide a spark for our defense but not have a huge impact. That's what happened. But he'll be ready for more games down the stretch. I have Strahan coming back by Philly game.

I hated that play when Plax does it. He's horrible at making moves. I think it was an audible on Eli's part. Saw the blitz, made the quick throw. If it is 2nd and long, it's a great play.

Osi I'm getting for the holidays in a couple of weeks. Jacobs may be next on my list. It's between him, Pierce, Snee (why not?), Robbins, and maybe Kiwi. Or Jeff Samrdja

Unless the Cowboys lose this week to the Saints and we beat Carolina, gotta root for Dallas when they play Atlanta.

You know what pisses me off? I was saying it the entire 4th quarter. The Giants always find ways to lose games against elite teams. Seattle last year, Colts this year, Bears this year, and now Dallas who is definitely considered among the NFC's best. They play em close, they should be in position to win, but they just never pull it out.

Hell, you never know. WE're gonna be the same team minus 2-3 players in the playoffs if we manage to get in there. As for tonight, go Panthers! As of now I think Carolina is a given as at least a WC. So I want every 6 loss team to turn into 7, which every team has except Atlanta. And I want Carolina to have less urgency against us next week.

He adds the extra dimension to our offense. At one point, I saw Newman covering him. It's nice to see that Dallas was putting their best corner on him. I like Moss, I think he'll be good for 40 catches 750 yards a year and will be very useful in our offense in multiple ways.

Kiwi's gonna be a monster. He's all over the place. If we ever make the move to the 3-4, you may see him at LB. He's awesome in coverage. And in 4-3, he's an outstanding rusher with huge arms and nice speed. I love the kid. It's too bad with what's happened to him lately. All I know is the way it's looking I'm going to have an Osi and Kiwi jersey by 2008-09

I'll take wild card at this point. I would actually rather wild card. Hopefully we get 6th seed Dallas gets 3rd seed, and we'll take em there. I want to play Dallas and Chicago in the playoffs. Then to make up for past omens, I want to beat the Titans in the super bowl

Yeah, but all signs point to Reese and Mara being GMs.

I hope you're right but I don't think with new GMs coming in that our HC would be fired. Especially the one our FO as of now is in love with. Maybe we can move him up to scout or something. I don't think we are letting him go from the organization.

What if we go 6-10 and TC winds up getting his extension? Then what do you think? Coughlin is coming back no matter what, so you might as well root for your team. You think Cards fans thought at 83 wins they'd win the WS? Get to the playoffs, and crazy things have happened. I mean, who the fuck knows what we are capable of when we get there? Getting another playoff game of experieince under Eli's belt will never hurt. And it'll be fun anticipating and hoping that a miracle can happen. So are you going to watch the game from your tv this week and root for the Panthers?

I don't think our FO is that dumb to keep coaches that we shouldn't. But then again you could be right

I was thinking of you when he made the penalty

Because our FO just HAS to show loyalty to everyone we hire

So you honestly believe that you would rather lose out then get in the playoffs where anything can happen? I don't know about you, but I'd rather get to the playoffs and see how the draft picks work from there. There are so many top 10 busts and so many 20-30 steals in the NFL these days. To say losing out would be better for the franchise would be ridiculous. For example, people thought the 9ers screwed their franchise by beating the Texans the last game of the year so they couldn't draft Bush. Well they wound up getting Vernon Davis who should be a stud for them at TE while they have allowed their RB Frank Gore to emerge.

No. If I felt like it right now, I could research 100 things that prove me right. One off the top of my head tells me if we won two more games in 1999, then we would've drafted Shaun Alexander by falling 7-10 slots instead of Dayne.
