parmenion Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I believe this is the turnaround week and watch out for the rest of the season. Confidence and that winning expectation will be back to 2012 levels.This is a solid team with solid coaches and a overall solid organization from top to bottom.

Tribal Chief Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 2012 level is already out of sight. This is not a solid team right now and the coaches appear to have no clue what they are doing with the players they have. A win this week does not guarantee a turnaround Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach_Petrino Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I think that it all falls on the offensive line. If our rag-tag group can develop some cohesiveness and just be average, then we can win this week. The Lions have not been scoring many points and are without Bush and Megatron. But I don't know if the OL can even be average. Hopefully this week of being together 24/7 will give them a chance to all bond and really step things up in terms of operating as a single unit. I just wish the players were better. Carimi has been knocked on his *** seemingly every third play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaSteeleboy Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I love that you're being optimistic and I agree that with a win this week we could win the next 2 after that against Carolina and Tampa Bay but let's not forget those 2 games are on the road. I doubt the players and coaches can turn the ship around but if they do I'd be surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest facelessman07 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I'll be looking forward to this thread getting bumped around noon EST SundayThere will be no "turning around" of any sort, except for us turning around our embarrassed aces back to the states Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I want them to win but I wont be dissapointed if they dont. Two goals are accomplished by them losing- TD and Smitty closer to being fired and higher draft picks for next year. So look at it as a glass half full situation.

Gold4425 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 We will win and the OPPORTUNITY for the turn around will be here. I just hope TD and MS realize we were on the brink and understand and do things different and give some other guys and thoughts a chance.

falconidae Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 As discouraged as I am about the season, and as much as I'm thinking about next year, with another years worth of high draft picks, and better coaching, a little luck about Oline injuries, I understand how the OP feels. There is the part of me that's going:You know, if they could slip by Detroit, then win at Tampa & Carolina, they'd be right back in this thing. Then, if the Oline got healthy [Matthew/Blalock] and if they gelled well, and if they played Freeman & Smith instead of SJax, if White and Jones and HD and Hester beasted the rest of the year and if they'd bench Biermann and if they'd drop the nonsense D schemes that just are NOT working and put in the young guys in a more basic D more concerned with tackling and filling gaps than confusing the opponent and if Hageman flipped that switch into beastmode and Shembo and Southward do the same, If smith would get his timeout and 4th down calls right....Sigh, gonna be a long rest of the season....

Tuggle'2 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Nothing wrong with hope. I like it. I will certainly be watching and expecting a win like always. As soon as the games start I become a different person and everything else disappears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope TD and MS realize we were on the brink and understand and do things different and give some other guys and thoughts a chance.I'm hoping the Oline that practiced as starters all finish the game and HD is back and effective enough to loosen things up for RW/JJ/DH...we might have a chance.KB is the only thing really pissing me off...minutes have to get cut.

BCEagleATLFalcon Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I start every game, even in the most dismal of seasons, with a glimmer of hope. But I also can't help but notice that we have had a "We WILL win this game" thread for each week after the Tampa game. How's that goin'?

slamee101 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Truth is I think we do have a shot at winning. I'd still say we lose if forced to bet $ on it though but this team and staff are probably going to come with one of the best gameplans/efforts we've seen in weeks bsed on the fact that they know they're probably going to be looking for work or let go under a new regime.Ultimately though I think this staff fails to make the necessary adjustments again and we drop a closer game. 28-24.
