It will be difficult but thats the only way we can win with our defense.
At the beginning of this year, i had us at 8-8, and now with the tie that won't happen, but 8-7-1 could in some scenarios be good enough to make the playoffs using that playoff machine, but we are going to have to win two more games, which will be tough.

In all fairness the d has given up 30 three times. Barry has next to nothing in the way of playmakers on the defense. I do not know if he is the guy, but I would bring him back and see what he can do with a couple more pieces. Plus continuity is never a bad thing.
We are 6-5-1. Of those five games there is one that we really never had a shot at. Week one. Our D was absolutely gassed on turkey day which is one of the 30 point games. We could easily be 11-1 rite now. That is a fact. You tell me one game besides Pittsburgh that we did not have a real chance to win. There is not one.
The fact that we are 6-5-1 and uber competitive in 11 of those games is a testament to something? Because our talent level on D is below par. So staff and or offense is doing something very rite.
We absolutely have a chance to win every single game left on our schedule and than some. Nobody in the league is miles above us. We proved that playing Dallas so tough twice.
