On the day of the game I was pissed about going for it, it took me a couple days to understand that (at last in a way), Ballard was making a statement about the culture he is trying to install in this team. Play to win. There's even logic behind it, it was 4th and 2 I think, and we are over 50% conversion rate on 3rd down... go for it.
I think 5 wins down the stretch is reasonable. If we get a little help from Houston we can be in the hunt for the division, or if Houston runs away with it we might be in the hunt for an AFC wildcard.
Feels like 8-8 to me, missing the playoffs and on very solid footing for next year.
