We can win out

When this team stepped up to the big dogs this season, they've ultimately been outcoached and outplayed.

I honestly don't expect this to happen, but if we make the playoffs from here, it'd be off the back of a 6-1 run and that would make us one of the hottest teams in the NFL.

If we do that, we'll have at least gone 3-1 over the Steelers (x2), Broncos and Chargers (I imagine at least two of these are in the playoffs).

We are 0-3 against the Ravens and Chiefs, but could easily have been 3-0.

We'd absolutely be a team that they wouldn't want to play, if we make it in from here. We're dead and buried right now, so to make it in the turnaround would have to be stark. 

The only game we've been trounced was the Eagles game. We've been in all these games, our defence just hasn't been any good. If we make it in from here, they'll have clearly figured something out as we aren't going 6-1 the way they're playing currently.
