Talk about a miss opportunity for seperation. Indy is also one game behind us now.
Basically, there is still a clear path to the division title (of course)but anyone who is confident today is probably fooling themself. At the half way point the race for the postseason is semi-clear. Its win the division; or compete with the Jets/Patriots division loser as well as Baltimore, Indy and possibly Miami for two wild card spots.
Right now, it's stupid to even think playoffs. Because if this offensive line doesn't find some HEART and do it very quickly, and you put the entire offense on the shoulders of a second-year QB with only one real weapon at WR; then you can kiss the playoffs goodbye. That's too much to put on Edwards at this point. It's time for the OL to put up or shut up.
