still expected them to be 2-2 in my original season predictions, so as long as we win next week to stay undefeated at home while cleaning up this penalty bullshite, then I'll feel ok. Ryan's performance in the second half gives me hope that he has finally knocked the rust off.
Dan Quinn's teams usually work themselves into a lather... I think he, and everyone knows that their starting efforts are pathetic and that anything short of a deep playoff run gets a lot of people fired.
I don't know what to expect of this team, I really don't.
Figured we'd start the year 2-2, but who knows what effort we will see next Sunday.
All I know is, you need to show up to the LA & Seattle homestand no worse than 3-3.
Our schedule is relentless the first half of the season. I think everyone knew that going in.
The goal should be, get to "halftime" of the season at 5-3. The absolute baseline is 4-4. From there, you've got your division slate.
This team kind of reminds me of that 2010,2011, 2012 version of the Falcons where, I think on talent alone - this team will go 7-1 or even 8-0 at home, snag 2 cheap ones on the road and hit the playoffs at 10-6.
I don't think we are a Super Bowl team by any means, but provided Neal is the only big injury we suffer, the sense of urgency should push us to those levels.
