We were a better team that the Saints, and a better team than the Vikings. We can't control how many games they win over the course of the season, but we can control the fact that we have a better roster than them, so more times than not, we were going to win more games.
I agree but it should have never come to that in the first place.

I know, but the way our scheduled worked, we had all of our tough games in November.

We played a bad game against the Bills, under understandable conditions, but outside of that we just happened to have to play New England, Philadelphia, Dallas, and Tampa Bay in a period of 5 weeks. It should shock no one that we went 1-4 in that time period.

Outside of that stretch of the schedule, we baically had average opponents, and went 8-3 against them. To me, I was not all that surprised by the outcome.

It just seemed like we got lucky to string together 4 wins, but in reality, that's just when we happened to be scheduled against the Bears, Giants, Vikings, and a Cowboys team that was resting its starters and playing shitty football. It shouldn't be a shock that we could win those games.

Re: Snyder sell the team

I am not ready to delve into the depths of doom and gloom that these "fans" who are already sitting on the edge of the cliff are ready to do.

San Diego if i remember correctly changed HC, OC, DC in the last 12 months and still did ok (in fact, in terms of playoff play, they did better this season than last, with a poorer reg. season record), we may not be up there with SD in terms of talent, but we're sure as heck not down with the Dolphins/Raiders/Jets.

Zorn, a former QB, former QB coach will get the most from JC - something which I don't think we have seen.
Blache, in terms of continuity, he knows the players, they know him, the system shouldn't change a whole lot under him.

I am confident that Dan will make the right decision (in my mind, preferrably Mooch, Spagnuolo or Daniels - the ONE guy I am dead set against is Fassel).
