I can't get behind that sort of thinking.

If the team is winning despite losing key guys like Cooley, Samuels, Thomas, Portis etc., perhaps we should consider that the future isn't so bleak after all, and perhaps we do have some good depth and young stars on the rise.

Of course the offensive line still needs major attention for the future, I don't think that will change win or lose.

All that said, beating Denver really didn't change my view of the team or my expectations for the rest of the season. If the team plays well again in Dallas, I might start to change my mind.

Exactly my thoughts. I mean imagine we somehow win out, consider all the key losses to injury and the strength of the remaining teams can we really say we are headed in the wrong direction. If anything that might be what we need.

Think about it this way, if we continue to see other backs outperform Portis I would think it would be a clear sign that maybe its time to move on from him. It works the same way with many of the older players. That is the one reason these last few weeks havent sucked as much as the first few weeks, we see a lot of our younger players and what exactly they offer us.
