I think it's funny that there's alot of should wins out there. The only "should win" out there is Detroit. We beat Det by 8 pts when everyone else was blowing them out of the water. That should tell you something.

Well, Cinci and SF also can't score points, so something has to give.
And about Detroit, I know we "only" won by eight points, but we had a two TD lead on them in the second half, and their offense (when it was at it's best this season, under Orlovsky) managed to cut the lead to a single score with the help of an illegal pick no call.
So yeah, while going into the half trailing by 4 against Detroit is embarrassing, we played every bit as well in the second half of that game on both sides of the ball as you would have expected us to, and I would say we blew them out in those 30 minutes. Perhaps our only blowout was the season Detroit was, but I don't want to take away what they accomplished there.
