Honestly, I am great with us being 7 of 8 instead of 8 of 8.

Losing to the Jags like we did (our offense was completely stimied by a GREAT JAX defensive performance), did more to motivate our guys then eeking out a 7-6 victory would have.

It reminded them that they are not perfect and just because you won 5 in a row does not mean you get to rest on your successes. You need to go earn them each and every week.

We got plain emarrassed by the Jags by being shutout. We then preceeded to turn around and beat two playoff contender teams who had been on hot streaks. I honestly don't know if that happens if we were not embarrassed in the JAX game.

If it means we miss out on the playoffs because of it, so be it. We were not supposed to make the playoffs this season anyway after starting 1 - 5.

Walk Worthy,
