First over .500 season in 4 years.

[FlaFinest954]

Last time we went over .500 was in 2016!

Something in itself to be happy about. And that's with a dinged up, lacking weapons team. The future is looking bright.

Be honest as much as I love looking at the ratio of 9-5 and tickled over it, it doesn’t look normal to me. But I love it

11-5 is so much better of a ratio.

It's not only 2 prime numbers, it also = Brian Flores, COY.

Huge win yesterday, but the job isn’t finished. Lose to Buffalo (or LA) and it’s all for not. I’m surprised we beat NE though, after ALL these years they're FINALLY regressing, and our time is about to come.

Bills game is the crown jewel of the season. Last game of the season, against division opponent, at their house, and Bills are playing like the best team in the league. They are 11-3 with .516 SOS.

The phrase is "all for naught".

all for naught​

Everything done has been in vain. Today a poetic word for “nothing,” naught formerly meant “morally bad” or “worthless.” Thus the King James version of the first Book of Kings (2:19) says, “The water is naught and the ground barren.”

You're welcome, and I disagree. This win is a step in the maturation of both players, and to some extent, the entire franchise.

I’d even be okay with a 10-6 record and miss out on the playoffs. Not trying to have a losing mentality but I’d at least still consider that’s a great season.

I’ve always expected 2021 to be the year.

If we lose to Buffalo this whole year likely gets washed away and we watch Lamar dance into the playoffs. That’s the reality of NFL football, moral victories are for chumps. It’s going to be extremely tough, but I’m starting to believe this team can get it done.

That’s nice, make the playoffs or this season is a failure. Were so close but the job isn’t done. Once we make the playoffs I won’t get too greedy as we are still a year or two away, but at this point to miss the playoffs would mean the season is a failure, simple as that. We can get it done and we have to.

13-3 are also prime numbers. just saying for future reference

That kind of depends on the mindset of the observer.

I would absolutely love to make the playoffs. Maybe even win a game. There is value in the experience, going forward.

On the other hand, if we end up with 10 wins, heading into the draft with 4 high picks, and a QB that's on a fast track up, with a top defense thats only going to get better?

Im pretty damn excited to get it going again, and there are zero regrets, or depression.

That's fine, if that's your opinion. Just no need to act like everyone has to feel the same, lest they be idiots.

 

[Lionstone]

From the context of this season, it is important. I am so jazzed for a winning season and meaningful games in December. A winning season with a rookie QB is huge within the context of being a destination where free agents want to go. The culture and how much players love to be here further compounds the returns on the winning season.

Even if we do not make the playoffs, it definitely. Is not all for naught.

This season has been a huge success regardless of what happens these last two weeks. Feels good.

Thanks to Bill O’Brien and the formerly much maligned Chris Grier our bright future was secured a long time ago. It’s not the end of the world if we miss the playoffs, but it’s right there for us so to lose either of these last 2 games now would mean we failed our mission for the 2020 season in the hyper competitive AFC, just the way of the NFL.
