I think we have a chance at the very least a winning record . But our fate really depends on what happens around the NFCE.

The Eagles are squeaking by teams week in week out there is something broken there and I am not sure they know how to fix it but they will have to to regain thier team to beat status . The GMen just got past the Broncos but they were playing them at home not the Bronco fortress that is Mile High . As for the Cowboys they are the team in the bigest state of flux right now. Another killer of a defeat in the dying seconds to a team that is good but not great (the Seahawks) has to hurt. They have shown ability to get past good teams and have on paper enough talent to win, BUT the loss of Adams at LT is going to cause problems on the O line which is going to seriously impact on Bledsoe and in turn the running game.

What would be a killer is if we finish tied in second place with the Giants and a tiebreaker gives them the nod for a wildcard spot which would be particulary gaulling because they were gifted that extra home game against the Saints . Not saying the Saints would have won anywhere else but gives you something to think about .
