Quick Thoughts...Outplayed but won post game

[Bolt-O]

I think the coaches probably think Emanuel is more steady in run d.

It must be something like that. The coaching staff seems to have a far higher opinion of he and Addae than the fans do. If you asked, most would likely say they are big liabilities.

We had a down game. We still won. All good teams have them and the good ones find a way to battle and get a W. Id rather have this as a wakeup call that we need to continue to work on things. We beat a scrappy 3-3 team that had a better week than the last 2. Learn and move on. Get healthy and a few key players like Bosa, White and Sturgis back and guys healed and we are sitting pretty especially with the next 3 games being winnable before going into the final stretch. If we are 8-2 going into that I think we can get in to the playoffs. That is goal 1.

Except for NE and KC, the rest of the AFC looks like a train wreck.

Hey im not going to poop on your rose colored glasses. Enjoy them I wish I had a pair. Too bad I have to see reality.

Reality... As in we are 5-2 on our bye week and looking to get some key pieces back? That kind of reality?

Better to share your real emotions rather than false thoughts. Sports are nothing without the emotions involved.

I do. Considering our kicker made all his kicks (just think if he had missed an extra point!) and our hobbled D made the plays it needed to on a day our O could only scarf up 20 points. If I have any concern coming out of that game, it is the wtf?! 20 points. And the short kickoffs, a better team might turn those into points! Gordon, Sturgis (at least for kickoffs), White and Bosa back and we beat KC, in KC. I believe it.

Playoffs. Did someone mention playoffs?

A bad titans team? Since when? Because they struggled to score while playing a qb that couldn't throw? Yes they are a team with an offense that has struggled with a new co-ordinator and a qb that couldnt grip or throw a ball for a few weeks. BUT they also habe a very good D on the rise and very solid ST. Or do you only evaluate recent offensive perfromance when judging a team? The titans are a team that wins ugly close games consistently. Do you put things into context when judging teams or do u allow recency bias to shade your view?

Also....winning is what matters right now. Personally i want my team to be playing its best ball in dec and january...not October.
I am pleased where we are and think there is room to improve as we get healthier. Oh the horror.
