Poop.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

A little frustrating that the Bills probably without McCoy are going to make it after we beat them by 30 but that's what happens when you start 0-4

I'm going to go out on a limb here. Blair Walsh will never kick in the NFL again.

I'd be fine with that, if for no other reason than seeing the Titans inevitably lose.

Would love to see the odds before the season on the Bills, Rams, Jags and Titans all breaking their playoff droughts this year..

And just one damn kick being made like against Miami or if the Chargers could have taken care of the Jags with all those opportunities they had at the end in that OT game. Heck, with the way they Jags finished, had the Chargers beat them, they would have been 9-7 as well and may not have made the playoffs.

I feel like the Chargers would have a better chance than either WC or Jax of advancing past the divisional round.

Well, Jacksonville already won in Pittsburgh convincingly, so I think they have a good chance.

We would've had to go through New England whom we played pretty tough but it probably wouldn't have happened. But if we had a 10-20% chance to win that game, I agree that the Titans, Bills, and Jags have less than that. And that's not a shot at the Jags; I've been happy to see them succeed this year but their running game seems to have fallen off a bit and Blake Bortles is not winning a playoff game in New England.

Classic Chargers season though. Every year they build up my hopes just to squash them in spectacular fashion :lol: If we can find a non-awful kicker and some help on the D-line to stop the run they should be really dangerous next year (see, its already starting again).

It's just amazing their kicker can cost them so much in a season. Nate Kaeding blew multiple playoff seasons for them though, so I'm used to it.

But yeah, I think just if they add a kicker and get off to a good start and take every game seriously, they could be really good.
