"If you want to win the division you have to win the division games" Or it was something similar to that.
We went 6-0 in the North that year and got into the playoffs at 10-6. So 4-6 outside of the division.
We're a very good team, but we're what... 7-10 in the division in the past 3 seasons? That's a real limiter on a team hoping to be a #1 seed.
I would say Burrow being banged up has been a large reason for this. Need to improve big time on Defense of course, but if we had a
healthy Burrow I highly doubt our Division record would be this bad. Both last year and this year we opened up against our rivals with a
hurt Burrow coming off an appendectomy and a bad calf strain.
