The upcoming Chicago game (12-28-08)

[Mike]

I think we will see the Texan team that resembled the squad during the win streak. They were flat last weekend.

This last game of the season is somewhat of a relief. This has been a long season. Seems that life has really went by fast since Ike blew through here.

I still feel this team although it has warts is going to be OK. I think they and we should quell the word playoffs and hopefully get off to a better start next year. I think we have more good pieces now than ever before.

Sucks that walking out of Reliant this Sunday will cause the mind to leap forward 8 months until August and cause too many "what if's" flashbacks for this year. (what if Sage slides, what if we stopped Garrard on one of the 4th downs, what if the defense played all year like they played during the win streak.") I am tired of the what if's. I want to have a football team that is a dominant force, but come February, I'll be making my season ticket payment.
