I'm sorry to be the spelling police, but if you can't spell Jon Jansen you really shouldn't be lecturing other fans...

A pretty bleak outlook. Hopefully it will give the offense some motivation. It sounds like the coaching staff feels the only possibility to win is to go all out agressive on offense.

Also has Portis really not rushed for over 100yds this season? I thought he did at least once
To hell with Portis. How about none of our WRs have a TD? Although big catches by Randle El, Moss and Cooley have led to TD's.

Woh I never said the injuries were fake. And the come running out of the tunnel like in the WWE is quite ridiculous.

But correct me if I am wrong, teams are adding new formations and plays to the play book every week. We may have been adding these plays all along, but not running them in games. This is done at every level of football. Teams work on something and then bring it out for the big game.

Same with the idea that the defense has not been blitzing so they unleash come this Sunday. Just an idea, or wishful thinking on why we haven’t looked so hot the last couple of weeks.

Re: Biggest Underdogs Ever?

Why would we sandbag talent and plays at the risk of losing? correct me if I am wrong but we would receive one win if we beat the pariots correct? So why would we risk it in the previous weeks?

I am just saying sorry I don't mean to bust your balls.

Re: Biggest Underdogs Ever?

I agree, a win is a win. Beat the Cardinals +1, beat the Patriots +1. Agreed. Maybe sandbagging was the incorrect term to use. Again, teams are always adding new plays, formations, and other little wrinkles to the game plan to stay unpredictable.

Either way, lets hope the team plays up to potential and the evil Patriots lose.
