Just as easily as winning all of them. We're 4-0 and on top of the world now, but I really believe we can be 4-5 just as easily as 9-0 in 6 weeks.
Not being a pessimist, hater, anti-homer, or ungrateful, or anything. I just think that playing a cornered Cardinals team, a powerful Chargers team, and three straight divisional games, it'll be very hard to go all the way through without a significant letdown here or there. This is a very tough stretch, none of those games are gimmes, and each of the teams has shown they can play with any team in the league. I see us falling down to earth a bit, dropping 3 of 5 (Ariz, SD, and Mia) and head into the final third of the season 6-3. I'm uneasy about this stretch and I'm glad we get a bye during it. DJ will maintain the ship even if we lose a couple and the national talking heads start the "I told you so's". If we can find a way to avoid a complete breakdown during these 5 games, I'm fully confident in our postseason chances.
Lynch will have to stay healthy. The Oline will have to play consistently in the pass game and flat out better in the run game. Edwards will have to continue his play (not worried). We'll have to be able to collapse the pocket occasionally with 4.
