The season's over but for two meaningless game.
Here's a quick look at next year schedule :
Home
Arizona Cardinals
Los Angeles Rams
Seattle Seahawks
Atlanta Falcons
Carolina Panthers
Jacksonville Jaguars
Tennessee Titans
Chicago Bears (NFC North last place)
Road
Arizona Cardinals
Los Angeles Rams
Seattle Seahawks
New Orleans Saints
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Houston Texans
Indianapolis Colts
New York Giants (NFC East last place)
Cleveland Browns (AFC North last place)
So we play three of the four divisions that will only send one team to the playoffs this year and have the lesser total wins : ours, NFC South and AFC South (the other one is AFC East). Overall, those South divisions have not been good for a bunch of years.
If we finish last we'll have the luxury of playing 3 other last places teams.
This is clearly the year to rebound with what seems RIGHT NOW a soft schedule.
If we make the upgrades needed during the offseason (other topic) and we are focus starting day 1 of the offseason program, we are clearly in contention if not favorites for the #1 seed.
They will all be Cinderella next year and we get our ass kicked
With our stupid luck (plus injuries), our division will improve even more next year while Falcons, Titans, Bears, Saints, Texans, Colts, Brownies all get significantly better and slap us around some

No, don't worry we are going to "Insert Your Name" them

Next year tho, there's always next year
