Confidence over the next four games

[The Bopkin]

I am betting most posters here feel confident we can/should beat the Jets.
Of the following three- at NO, at TENN, NE at home- which is the game you are most concerned about?
Which of those three do you feel best about?
New England makes me nervous, but it's at home, and New England could rest starters.
Tennessee without Henry is a different team.
New Orleans without Brees, and lots of injuries, is more mortal.
What do you think?

NE we can end on a high

Being 2-0 vs BB

And Tua being 3-0 vs BB might be a confidence builder

It's hard to tell because this team is(and has been for a long time)very unpredictable. They can play a great game but they can also lay an egg on any of the last 4 games. The best thing we have going right now is the bye week to get people healthy and rested for those last 4 games. They you get the jets at home to get rid of the rust and ready for the last 3 games. If history tells us something is that we're due for a bad game at some point but I hope I'm wrong.

One game at a time for me oh, but if I had to pick Tennessee is going to be starved for a win and it'll be a playoff atmosphere. Because before they play us there at Pitt and then have a Thursday night game hosting the Niners, so they're going to have 10 days to get ready to play us, while we only have 6 days playing that Monday on the road. Also there's a lot of talk that Derrick Henry may be back for our game.

Sorry, I'm still in the 'when-is-MIA-going-to-fall-apart-again' mindset. Pick any of those games. Losing to any won't surprise me

I understand and don't blame you at all. The team is too inconsistent and they've really hurt themselves with the earlier games this season. We very realistically could be well in position for a playoff spot and have a legit chance at the division had we taken care of business earlier this season.

 

[39wildman]

I think we will win out and still not make playoff. That my feeling

 

[lynx]

I think we will beat the Jets and I think we will sneak by the Saints. The Titans game though, will be very difficult if they have Henry and Brown back, which is a very good possibility. Winning that game will tell us a lot about the Dolphins

 

[Average Tua]

I think all the games that we have left are very winnable. I do want to embarrass New England. I do not want them Resting starters. I can’t stand their ****ing team or their piece of **** coach. I can’t wait till Belichick and Brady regardless of who he plays for are gone for good.

good point. I expect henry back against miami. why wouldn't he be. Players seem to always come back and first game against miami. I expect brown as well. That will be really tough game to win. I didn't realize they get 10 days to prepare for us. that really sucks

This. With that said my biggest concern is Jets. We could really kill our momentum with a loss or even an ugly win. Hope we win but I can’t shake the feeling

 

[malzj]

We had zero carry over from last year as far as progression as a team goes. We also had an actual offseason. To take until midseason to have a defensive playcalling sense of urgency is why we started so slow.

most bipolar team in the league. It wouldn't surprise me if we finished 4-0 or 0-4.

Exactly. This could go either way but the fact is that if we lose just one game, I'm 99.9% sure that we won't make the playoffs. Even if we win out 10-7 might not be enough.

Jets, well they suck. Saints are decimated by injuries and absences for the week we play them, shouldn't be a problem. Titans game will be interesting to see who is available for them, of course Henry is a concern. NE are absolutely beatable. I have pretty good confidence they can run the table. The Titans game is the concern for me.
