Very unsatisfying win.

I felt more encouraged after last week’s loss than I do after this win.

We absolutely made a shit team look competitive.

This should have been a blowout, possibly a shutout.
Why is it so hard to see that Cam Ward had a very good game against us? Yes, we didn't play all that well, but he scrambled out of our clutches several times and made plays. It was impressive. There's only a couple of QB's in the league with that kind of athletic ability.

I’m not taking anything away from him.
I even commented oh his skills, talent, and moxie.

None of that means anything to me when I’m evaluating what my team did/didn’t do.

I have expectations here, and that is for us to beat the bad teams decisively, stay in the game with a chance to win against the good teams.

I was just really impressed at the plays he made, the first downs he came up with. We would have had several more sacks and defensive stops had it been most QB's in the league who couldn't have escaped our rush.

The other team gets paid too. The other team tries real hard too. The other team makes plays too

There is no such thing as an easy game in the NFL

Some posters here just don’t understand how hard it is to win in this league

8 and 3 is not only a good record but it is also a record that we would of been ecstatic to have if we looked at it in the beginning of the season


Style points mean nothing

And neither does anything that comes out of Texas....except oil...
On that.

We’ve got some decent BBQ, and a ton of hot blonde girls.

Great economy, job market, and cost of living.

I’m paying $2.89 (American) for a gallon of diesel fuel, $2.37 for unleaded gas.


BTW, hopefully you understand I’m just messing around?

The record is great.

The “record” raises expected outcomes and expectations.

I’m not upset by the win, I’m unsatisfied with it.

Felt like we “dominated”?

How so, I didn’t see anything that made me feel like that.
Control from the first play to the last. They played soft on D to keep the Titans plays in front of the D. It was a get well game..

It's the NFL any given Sunday. We won, end of story, moving on. Oh and by the way........ Minnesota is going to get their clocks cleaned next Sunday.

Exactly this. Wins create expectation. I think we’d all agree, we are in a better situation than what we were last year. We are still in the ‘I don’t know how good we are’ phase. Let’s ride it and see how far we go. Not many people gave us a hope this year. Love watching my team win!
