Very well put. The object is not to win each quarter or half as they happen, or to balance out your statistics across all 4 quarters, it's to win the game. The game is the only single entity that matters.
True that and they have done quite a bit of winning with this formula of theirs.
That being said I am getting a little sense of unease about MNF. We are a huge favorite and should be but I see Detroit as an extremely wounded animal with more pieces on both sides of the ball than 2 of our first 3 opponents. Tate will have a huge chub to burn the team and teammates that dumped him and he will not be intimidated by Kam or anyone else.Not to mention the unique insight into Hawks philosophy, strengths and weaknesses he brings to the table. Megatron seems healthy as does Ebron. Stafford is hot and cold but he has a big time arm and has played here before so he will have some familiarity.They are a play here and there from possibly coming in at 1-2 or 2-1. Their greatest decline is on the defensive side of the ball but Id be surprised if Seattle stuffs them completely.
DANGER. Hawks had better be on their game early and often. I think they will but this is no cakewalk IMO.
