One of my first experiences was watching the tinhorns take out the jaguars on December 26th that resulted in us missing the playoffs.  I was at that game, and let me tell you, it was on of the most miserable days ever.  And I wasn't even a die hard fan then.

I'd prefer we beat the snot out of the that team.  But I'd rather be healthy and make the playoffs more.  If that means Sherff needs to sit and get healthy along with some of our other major players, I'm OK with that.  

Hell, we may still beat their [BLEEP] at only 75%.  But the division isn't won next week.  We need to be as right as we possibly can be for week 18.  That's the bottom line.

I can assure you this is not a fact. At least not for those of us who have been around since the beginning.

Whilst I dislike the Tinhorns, I hate with the burning fury of a million sun's those stinkin T*tans.

I can't wait for Week 18 and stamping on their damn throats, ending their playoff hopes and taking back the South but Week 17 is the priority.

Like NYC says, play the starters, get a big lead then let the #2's play. We've got the big mo, no need to out-think ourselves.
