I'm going to watch and root for us every remaining game this year, but I voted "yes, the season's over as fas as playoffs are concerned" for the following reasons:

1. O-line cannot run block for Portis.

2. We're thin at the D-line and our front 4 cannot pressure the QB.

I still stick by my previous prediction of 9-7, but we will miss the playoffs. The Eagles should be beatable next week if we can run the ball on them like Denver did today, but we can't.

The Biggest disappointment is how we don't run plays designed for Portis. We took a big-play fearsome back and have turned him into a non-factor. No decent defensive team fears our running game.
