After the bye, this is our schedule:
vs. Cleveland
vs. San Francisco
@ Minnesota
vs. Chicago
@ Baltimore
@ Cincinnati
vs. Arizona
vs. Detroit
vs. Tampa Bay
@ Seattle
@ San Francisco
The biggest thing is that we need to take care of business against the teams we should beat. We pretty much have to go 8-3 after the bye to get to the playoffs and that’s attainable. Personally, I think we need to come out strong with a 5-0 run after the bye. Minnesota always gives us problems but we need to win that game. They’ll likely be one of our biggest competitors for that playoff spot.
I think our two toughest games are Arizona at home and Seattle on the road. Cincy is a very tough team this year but I think that’s a team we match-up to well. With Baltimore and Detroit playing poorly, our schedule after the bye is pretty favorable. Fisher just needs to have this team show consistency and beat the teams they should beat.
If we do that, we could very easily go 8-3 or 9-2. I can’t stress it enough, though, we need to come out hot after that bye week. I think that 5-0 win streak is almost a must.
Foles and the OL need to regroup and get it together. Gurley can do some serious damage but we need a competent passing attack and a QB that can protect the ball. The defense is living up to their billing. It’s time for the offense to pull their weight.
Do you guys think we can pull off 8 out of 11 after the bye or do you think we end up .500?(or worse?)
