I'm convinced Denver is a complete mirage, even with Orton at QB. They haven't been able to run the ball all year, they were bound to come back down to Earth.

The Texans and Ravens have always been thorns in our side. The Patriots game will definitely be tough as usual. Even the Titans are showing signs of life lately and can't be written off as long as Chris Johnson is on the field. If we finish 5-1, it would be a minor miracle IMO.
 
Just need a strong showing against the Bills to kick our playoff push off. A nice convincing win to get the guys some more confidence.
 
We have to, or we will not make the playoffs IMO
 
Denver will be lucky to go 9-7, Jacksonville I can't see going better then 9-7 either, depending on tonight Houston will go 8-8 i bet, Baltimore could go 10-6 at best and Pittsburgh 11-5 i think. so comes down to a tie breaker with baltimore
 
We're supposed to be progressing toward the easier part of our schedule, but after the Bills game - which as a divisional game can't be taken lightly - every game is very tough.

The Jags remind me of the Panthers, and I think we should win the game; the Titans are very dangerous ("easiest" game after the Buffalo week); the Texans present difficulties, but I think they're far less dangerous without Owen Daniels (especially to us, with our issues covering the middle of the field); the Steelers are a obviously a tough team - despite their current slide; and of course the Pats are one of the better teams in the NFL.

Each game is winnable, but playing that many difficult game in succession could be too much - when asking us to win 5 out of 6. Look at it this way, though, if we win 4 out of 6, Henne will finish the year 9-4 as a starter, and that's very impressive. If he finishes it 10-3, we should send him to the Hall before the playoffs begin.
 
I think the Ravens and Steelers are the main obstacles as there are two WC spots and they seem to have pretty favorable schedule. I think we can only afford one more loss.....maybe to the Patriots, but we have to win the rest. It would be nice if the Pittsburgh game on Week 17 was to decide the last playoff spot. I think we can possibly catch the Pats if the Saints beat them next week and we can beat the Pats, but that will be tough.
 
Anybody got the odds on Miami winning out...all the way to and including the Super Bowl?

GO MIAMI! RELEASE THE DOGS OF WAR!!!!
 
I don't think we match up favorably with the Texans. The Patriots of course scare me, as they should, and the Steelers too - especially if Polamalu is back are going to be a tall order playing for what could be their season also. I said around 8-8 from the getgo with this team and i hope i'm wrong, but i think it's a real real tall order. Probably not something to be ashamed of to go 8-8 with a schedule like we've had either. Disappointing but this is still a work in progress.
 
9-7 could get in with tiebreakers the way things are going thus far. But we need to get to 10 wins and most important beat the patsies
