Well starting out 6-2 may have raised our expectations and definitely been ahead of where we thought we'd be. But I do not thinks it was an unreasonable level for any of us at that point to have thought possible NFC East Championship possibilities. Superbowl is a stretch and just silly to have started that crazy talk.
But my point is if a team starts out 6-2, you are pretty much expecting them to remain consistent the rest of the season. A loss here & there sure. But what you don't expect is another season where we've started out strong like that and then take a big dump down the stretch.
Yes we have 4 games to go.....it's not looking so good. But it's certainly not over yet. *crosses fingers*
