Yup.   I'm back. I just wanted to say a couple things.

Look at the franchise that knocked us out of the playoffs two years ago. The washington  Redskins.  Look at the Tampa Bay BUCS.. look at the Browns and the Lions.

Focus on how quickly they went from good to bad. focus on how long they went from bad to still bad.

Then look at the year by year progress of CHILLY.

He got rid of the bad blood. He brought in key free agents. Retained great free agents. Made great drafts.

You can gripe about his play calling that one time in PITTSBURGH..  or on some goal line stands and FG settlings.  (even though we rank high in red zone)  you can argue hypotheticals all you want.

But now "he" is 7-1. Even if we lose in the first round of the playoffs.. he deserves super props, because our team, Aside form Favre and Pat Williams, is quite youthfull!      We have a great future!

Have any of you guys come around yet to see the "big picture" and see how franchises are ran? It's not a quick fix. I know, if we didnt have favre, we'd easily be 4 and 3 right now.  But we have him, and he's the main reason why. If we didn't have trestman, our current roster, and if CHILLY wasn't willing to stick his head out for him and keep after him, he wouldn't be here.

We should all be in a pretty great mood here on the bye, no major injuries... 7 and 1... easy schedule coming up. I am excited and I know all of you are, but all you people that wanted to fire childress were being impatient, short sighted and "roobish. "

Look how bad the SKINS got.. look how AWFUL the seahawks are. they have/had as much talent as we do!  Just not a great coach =p   Look at the TITANS!  wtf?!  We have a solid stable team even when favre and Pat WIlliams leave. we will be ok!

May as well give CHILLY a 2 year extension. He built the team in the first 3 years.. now he's got some time to win it all or get close.
