Default Bye Week Couldn't Come At A Better Time

This is one banged up team on both sides of the ball. A week off to heal up some these guys will do a world of good. If someone had told me we'd be going into the bye week with a one-game lead in the division, I'd be all smiles.

Sure, we've got some problems and the effort the past two weeks has clearly been lacking. But Cutler has been missing some of his weapons and the run defense has somehow got to be fixed but we're still the best of a bad division and we still have a real shot at making the playoffs for the first time since D-Will's murder.

Guys, let's get healthy and kick some ass in two weeks.

After watching 3 qrts of that game, this team is really no different from last years team. Don't expect a different result.

I benched Santana moss and Plax to start Randy moss and welker anticipating the matt cassel 130+ rating. IT was a no brainer. Just figured we show up and make it a contest.

We'll win the Miami game only because Shanahan's records after the bye week. He'll have plenty of time to gameplan them. That said, the Dolphins are not a bad team. Solid running game and very physical.

shanahans record against the patriots was nearly as good as the bye week deal...ronnie brown is disgusting, if we play twice as good as we did today, he will tear us up.

Nope....Ronnie Brown will kill us. And Pennington will look like Jesus Christ out there, if Damon Huard threw for 400+ on us.

After last years embarrasing season, and this season looking like a repeat, it must feel like a swift kick in the nuts for Shanahan after last nights debacle. Maybe he will take this 2 weeks to make some tough decision making. Letting coaches go, or play the youth movement , bring back Lynch ? I think every option should be on the table right about now, before Mr. Bowlen gives him a swift kick.
