11 Weeks in, 6-4 record. Where is your trust level with this year's team. Let's go on record now.

A. Do you trust them to be a top tier team and win out going 12-4 and getting a first round bye in the playoffs?

B. Do you trust them to be a upper echelon team that will make the playoffs by beating all of the teams their supposed to beat that remain on their record? and Going 10-6? Losing to the Broncos and Pats

C. Do you think they'll lose the games they're suppose to lose (pats, broncos, ) AND lose a game against a team they're supposed to beat (Jets)

D. Do you think they'll crap the bed like they did last year and end up 7-9, 8-8?

Personally I've been burned by this team so much over the years that I really can't bring myself to trust them to win all the games they should win, or beat both the broncos and the pats. Although all of the evidence from this year tells me that we don't lose to teams we're supposed to beat.... the history of the team has me very wary. Maybe I would feel different if our offense could show some consistency but the fact that we go entire halfs without scoring a TD's scares me. So for that reason, I'm going to go with C. I think we somehow end up 9-7 which I think is something to build on for next year. What say you??
 
Whats the diff?

This team is better.

Trust?

I dont live in the past. Que Sara sara...ur sumthin.
 
C.. I hope I'm wrong but sweeping the jets and beating the ravens is not an easy task.

Exactly! These are teams they MUST beat especially the Jets. That game more than any other is going to be formidable for this team. Mentally, they can't allow themselves to slip by the Jets.
 
I am going with B, but I am really tempted to go A. I really, really like the culture and attitude of the veteran players. Finally, I am committed to Tannehill. See the continued growth.
 
What is B Alex. Or to put it another way, i have about 65% trust in the team to get the job done and have a game or 2 in January
 
While they have made strides this year and I think the GM has done a great job, I still don't trust this team. Trust is earned and, until it's proven otherwise, I will continue to not trust them 100%.
 
B.

Although, I honestly believe we will win EITHER the Denver or New England game, but not both.

Regardless, as I've said for about 2 months now, the season boils to what we do against Baltimore. I like our chances simply because of how the Ravens have played on the road this season.
 
somewhere between B and C. im very confident this team wont lay any eggs like we did last 2 games last year. i think we'll be in every game and have a chance to win every game, including broncos and pats. i think our playoff fate will come down to the ravens game, win that and i think we'll go 10-6. lose and probably 9-7.

im cautiously optimistic. normally id be going into this denver game expecting a blowout for denver, but i think we'll be right there in the 4th qtr with a chance to win. unfortunately i think we lose a close one 30-24.
 
B.
Philbin getting to the playoffs is not going to be a walk in the park, no matter how good we seem to play. Too many inconsistencies still with the teams performance in first-halfs, kicking game, late-game drives, and choosing the hot-hand in the running game.
I see that rearing its ugly head and costing us a few more.
 
Really for me it's a prove me wrong sorta mentality I have. I don't have faith in the team until they give it to me. I expect a blowout in Denver. I'd LOVE to be wrong.
 
I'm tempted to say that the losses to green bay and Detroit, while they hurt our record, I don't think they hurt the confidence of the team, in fact I think they were pissed that they had those games won, and if not for two plays we are sitting at 8-2. I think these guys KNOW they can beat any team in the league, and they just have to go out there and perform.
 
I would probably put the betting line at 9.5 right now with a little juice on the under, so we're a 9.25 win team for me right now.
