You can't have "control their own destiny" conversations in week 6. Almost every single team in the league controls their own destiny right now.
This team is now 2-4. They've lost 2 of the last 3, and 3 of the last 4. They're 6-9 since starting 8-0 last year.
This was a team who was supposed to next the step, and elevate themselves from simply being a playoff team to a being true contender. Well, they've played 4 playoff caliber team this season. Patriots, Cowboys, Broncos and Steelers. They lost all 4 games. Didn't win a single one.
They lost by 18 to the Patriots, 14 to the Cowboys, 12 to the Broncos, and 8 to the Steelers. We weren't within a touchdown and an extra point in any of these games. Not one. We were held to 17 or less in all 4 games. Those are very disturbing numbers.
There's a lot better talking points than the fact that we control our own destiny in week 6. I'm not even really sure what that means in October.
