It may run counter to the theme of this thread, but shouldn't we just be focused on winning as many as we can and let the chips fall where they may?

I mean, having a tie breaker over Detroit, but not over the Giants will mean squat unless we win at least 5 of 8, if not 6 of 8. With Dallas 2x, the Giants, Tampa, a surging Minnesota, and an always dangerous when down Philly on our schedule, we should be more concerned with just winning games.

Frankly, I don't think this team is good enough to deserve a playoff spot. Our O-line is decimated (running on the Jets doesn't count guys), our recievers haven't gotten in step, our QB is learning, but not great (on pace for a 2800 yard 12 TD, 14 INT season), and our secondary is one Shawn Springs hamstring pull away from being a disaster.

Forgive me if I am not too concerned about a playoff berth.
