    What if Q, Brockers and Hayes are limping around and not one hundred percent
    for a while. And we know Tru is out. Can this team still scratch and claw ugly Wins ?

    I think not.

    They win ugly close games WITH the fierce DLine.

    not consistently.

    not consistently enough to make the playoffs.

    probably another 7 win season without him.

    Yeah, thats how it looks to me too.

    Can you imagine, how the fans will feel if they win 7 again 🙂

    No. They can win a few, but they won’t make the playoffs Seattle and Ari will continue to get stronger as the season goes on, they have for a few years now.

    That Buff loss really hurts. 4-1 would have given us some breathing room.

    If Quinn, Brockers and Hayes are still out, then we will lose at Detroit. This D line is too important. Losing Tru just makes it worse. Stafford will eat our lunch if we can’t pressure him.

    The GSOT went 10-6 in the 2000 season because they didn’t have a defense. The offense we have now can’t single-handedly win games. Can’t win any game really. We have to have a great D to be above .500. Right now, we don’t have a great D.

    Yeah, and its not whether Q, B and H “play” or not. Its whether they are healthy and play. We all remember how ineffective Q was when he played hurt last year.

    Does anyone know WHY Quinn didnt play? Is it the back again?

    It’s not the back.

    Quinn is listed with a shoulder injury, one he suffered Sunday before re-entering the game.

    And to answer the question, can they win without Quinn?

    Quinn went out last year after the Chicago game. That was week 10.

    The defense wasn’t the same, but whether they won depended on a lot of things, including who the qb was. So after he went out, they lost the Baltimore game with Keenum and then lost Keenum. Two more games, Foles was the qb and they lost both, in hyper miserable, beat down fashion.

    Keenum came back in week 14. And then interestingly they won against Detroit without Quinn. As you know at that point, including the Lions game, they went 3-1.

    So with Keenum but without Quinn they went 3-2. That includes a win in Seattle.

    It’s not ideal but they can apparently dial up enough to win some. But needless to say it’s better with Quinn.

    Don’t know. I am sure they have all played hurt before.
