Now the Hawks become the Mariners, hoping for a wild card spot.

The good news is that there's still a lot of football left, half of the regular season, and plenty of time to get this thing turned around. But if we don't win in the desert this Thursday, it's going to turn us into scoreboard watchers, hoping for this or that team to lose rather than us simply taking care of business.

This loss doesn't mean that the sky is falling. With that being said none of it is going to matter unless we start playing better. Russ was off yesterday. The recievers were not getting open early in routes. The run game was a little better, but not good enough to rely upon.The D gave up 17 points to an awful team (not that the skins are awful overall but the team they put on the field yesterday was due to all the injuries). Way too many penalties, 150 yards!! Some of those were complete BS, but many others were not. The good news is we have a very talented roster that can get past this game quickly and it very well could end up being one of those games that we look back on after a very successful season and think I can't believe they lost to the skins at home that year...

Do you think the Rams are going to go 14-2? They're playing well but I'm not yet sold on them and think the more they play, the more film will show weaknesses.
They play the Vikes, Eagles, Tennessee, NO, and us for tough games.
We have some tough opponents, too but just have to win more than them and beat them again in December.
