Will this team mail it for the rest of the season?

I think you (and many others) are confusing getting beat for quitting. And assuming that we have something like 21 point leads at the half. Losing the Packers game wasn't about quitting, losing the Eagles game wasn't about quitting, losing the Cowboys game wasn't about quitting.

Packers, Eagles, Cowboys, and Bucs are all better teams than we are.

Can we say the same about the Bills?

Here's what we know, the Bills and the Redskins have played through the two toughest schedules in the league, and thusly, they are the two teams that are toughest to get a good read on.

Are the Bills really better than us? Would they have been a playoff contender had they not had to face the Pats twice?

I don't know the answer to these questions, but let me just say I am very impressed by this Buffalo team.

I think the reality is that Buffalo is a lot better than their record indicates, and hell, coming into today's game, they had the same record as we did. Not a gimmie for a bubble team like we are right now.

Certainly not for a team trying to keep it together in one of the most painfully emotional times any of them have ever experienced, to say nothing of the cumulative toll of injuries, 4th quarter collapses, and overall just bad karma.

Let me just say, earlier in the year I said watch out for the Bills down the stretch and you said watch out for the Vikings...we rule!

Well I mean I thought we'd beat the Bills but it wouldn't be easy. I just meant overall the Bills would be a much improved team (not just against us)

I know you've been sky high on Edwards since he came into this league.

While I wouldn't say he had a great day today, I think he won a game against us that Losman wouldn't have won. Losman hates to take what we give him, and probably would have thrown the game right into our hands once we got the two score lead.

You've got me convinced. Edwards is the better QB.

As for the Vikings, we should beat them. But we will only beat them if we come out and throw the ball all over the place. If we played like we did today, we will come up short against them also.
