I agree SUNRA. One thing this team has is unity and they fight until the end. We need to come out blow a team out starting this week in Detroit.

The Detroit and the Dallas games are the one I was torn between. It came down to Detroit having the home field advantage, and the better QB.

Top 5 pick, here we come!

Actually, 5-11 is what my first stab looked like, but I thought Ramsey was worth a couple of extra wins. But I can't disagree with you. 5-11 would not surprise me.

Fair enough. But the fact is I'm not sure what is said in the locker room. I do know they say that about Warner. Do they say that about Favre, Donovan, McNair, Manning to name just a few. I don't think so. They didn't used to say that about Patrick Ramsey either. In fact, the opposition would usually marvel at how tough Ramsey was in the pocket.

My point was that it was interesting to hear the opposition say (probably after reviewing tape) that our QB has a tendency to be rattled. I would not discount that, especially when it's said AFTER the game.

I think it's both.

That's what I thought back in game 2 against Dallas game Brunell kept missing people. What a horrible night that was.
