It's becoming more and more apparent to me that this team is a 7-9 team that's just had an insanely easy schedule. Things started great, but despite the 7-1 record, the only way they're making the playoffs is because everyone else in the NFC North would be lucky to win 6 games. Stan Grossman's evil twin Rex is back in at quarterback, which means they're back to having a sub-50% passer who crumbles at the slightest suggestion of a hint of pressure, the running game never even got going when they were everyone's pick to have an undefeated season, the defense gives up yards and points like crazy as of late while forgetting how to sack the quarterback, Tommie Harris and Bernard Berrian have all but disappeared, and rookie superstar Devin Hester can't hold on to the ball and has no idea when to just let the punt bounce. Simply put, this is the only team I've ever seen put up 41 points on a bad team and not look very good at all while doing it.
The funny part is that after a way-pessimistic look down the rest of their schedule, they'll still probably go 11-5, at least.
