Have to remember that was technically Daks 3rd game this season, 2nd since the injury.. but I agree. Have to see how he does when the schedule gets harder. Pollard is the better back for sure. More explosive, faster. I think we need to use Zeke when we need better pass blocking or some hard 1-2 yards for a first. Pollard should be the starter going forward. I think Moore knows this, but Jerry will fuck this up.
Packers I can see going like the Bears game.. we score a lot but will give up a ton of running yards to Aaron Jones and possibly AJ Dillon if they dont figure something out on run D.
Schedule gets hard for the following two after. Vikings and Giants. I think we take an L against the Vikings but I think we keep it close.. and Kirk doesnt have a great record against us... we can steal this one but probably wont.
Giants will be a good game. Its a divisional game.. those you can just never predict how they will go. We went into their house and took that game (I was there, fun game to watch... got to see CDs great TD catch up close.. we were in that corner lower level).. they are going to want to do the same. If we can bottle up Barkley like we did in the first game, I like our chances. But Thanksgiving seems to be a curse for us.. so who knows.
I think we go 2-1 in those 3.
Then the last of the schedule: Colts, Texans, Jags. Eagles, Titans and Commies. We can easily take 4 of those games. We have the potential to win all 6. Will we? Probably not.. but I think we win enough to make playoffs. Unless the Eagles just fall apart, I dont see us winning the division and will be going in as a wild card team. I think the way the NFC is this year, 12-5 will be more than enough to make playoffs.
