I really hope we don't regret this one as much as I think we might a couple of months from now. Maybe in the end it won't matter, and 8 or 9 games will win the division. I certainly don't think we'd be in the mix for a bye or anything like that, but man-oh-man this could have been such an enormous victory...
(And on the glass half full side, at least I can still realistically talk about the division race in mid-October...)

It hurts more cause we're in the driver's seat when we weren't expecting to be. I was hoping for 1 win out of the first 5 before the beginning of the season.
I figured maybe 2 if we beat SD, but I wasn't thinking we would. I thought we would lose to SF, Indy, and Houston, and I wasn't even positive about the Browns being a win.
We really did come out of the gates flying, which we have to be proud of. Let's just turn this quarter around and go 3-1 again. Jacksonville, Buffalo, and Raiders are the next in our sights.
