We're going to have to start much sooner than December. Right now, we are 0-3 in the conference. Last year, we were 10-2 and controlled our own destiny with making the playoffs. Before December, we're @ Philly, @ Tampa Bay and have Carolina and Dallas at home. The Bucs fight like dogs every week but keep coming up short -- they will be no pushovers. Then we have games @ New Orleans, @ St. Louis, and a home game against Atlanta (who runs the ball very well - and that's something we haven't been too good at stopping yet.)
That's a brutal schedule no matter how you look at it. They'd have to be undefeated with the rest of the NFC, and then still may have to depend on someone else to lose in order to squeak into the playoffs.
