Looking back...

and going into the highlight section here, which is awesome I miss how great we played the year before last... like the 35-7, 14-13 cowboy games, watching those literlly give me chills.... even like the 49ers game...the new years day eagles win... what are the chances realisticly do u think that we can return to that explosive offense, crushing defense and glory of 2005... not to mention we only lost ONE game by more than 3 points that year...

If we can get back to taking away the run, our guys can get back to pinning their ears back and blitzing effectively again.

We haven't really done anything to address the Dline this offseason, so at this point I'd say our chances aren't good. But obviously the draft/June 1 will change that outlook.

We lost 28-21 to the Chiefs, 36-0 to the Giants, and by a touchdown to the Chargers in OT.

I know what you're saying though. If anything, the offenses should be similar. Maybe an even better passing game. Defensively though? Not so much.

yea i 4got about those games.... i block out that 36-0 stomping i think.... and the chargers game cuz it was BS

The glory of 2005. Not sure how old you are, but try being a fan since the 80's and actually knowing what it felt like to be a legitimate contender EVERY year.

I feel for the younger fans because they've never known real success. When things get rough, at least us old timers can reflect back on those victories and apply them like a soothing balm to help get us through the rough seasons.

ladybrave, will you take some of that soothing balm and rub it on my back?

lol... maybe later.
