The optimism is nice but reality is the team is heading in the wrong direction. Naysayer or not you have to look at reality and reality is the problems we have this season are the same problems we had last season (absolutely no playmakers on Offense). We do not have a premier back and our best WR is "at best" a #2 or slot guy. These problems aren't going to fix themselves and the current roster can't fix them either.

I'm not saying we should jump off the bandwagon and just complain, but we need to be realistic with our view of the team and right now it doesn't look like a playoff team. Our FO completely ignores the offensive side of the ball and continue to build the defense yet our defense doesn't look so hot either (we can't stop the run).

I think the fins will be a much better team by the time we play them again . If the Bills score 28 how do we match them?

which half in week one? They sucked in the second half and have since then. That is what is meant that we are trending in adownward spiral. I see us as fully capable of being competetive with the Jaguars and Colts. If we play as badly as we did against the Blowfish , we will not get lucky a second time!

The way I see it... At the end of the day, we watch sports to be entertained. That's really it. Sports are supposed to be a distraction from real life. We are supposed to, like, ENJOY what we are watching and feel like a small part of the team! Do you garner any satisfaction from watching this garbage? Worse yet, people are paying a lot of hard earned money for the "privilege" of watching their team. Why? To be entertained! To enjoy oneself. There is no enjoyment in supporting the grotesque product being thrown out on the field.

6 wins? With what? With who?

if they win once more I would be surprised, I mean look at this roster, especially the offense, they may not even score more then 6 points per game again. There is nothing there.

Its the nature of fans. If they upset the Texans on Monday night you will be reading Super Bowl threads next week.

It is pretty pathetic.
