We better win the Division round. If we lose the NFCCG I will be pissed too. I want nothing less than a trip to the SB.
If we make it to the SB we will surely have to play the Patriots, and I would not be too upset if we lost to them because they are the best in the NFL right now. I would be very upset losing to any NFC team on the way though.

My outlook is the same as it always is. If we lose to a team that just is the better team that day, fine, so be it, but if we lose because we shoot ourselves in the foot I will be irate. I don't expect us to do that though, we didn't get to 13-3 by doing that. But the margin for error is zero, playoffs baby!!!! My God I'm going to be a nut case for the next 2 weeks lol

Anything besides Super Bowl would be a disappointment for me

One and done....

Not if they buy tickets.

I voted for the second option from the top. I do not see how anyone can vote "No, this team should have gone all the way". That is silly in my opinion. Critical game changing injuries happen in the post-season as well. Also, winning the SB is a crapshoot. Out of 12 teams jockeying for the title, only one will win it. From where we've come to what we've accomplished in three seasons has been nothing short of success. Of course, the ultimate goal is to win the SB.

i really thought 11-5 for the season, trip to the playoffs, win one game.
so far i have underestimated this team, 13-3 beats me by two games.
however, after watching this team all year, week after week go into a game with all the 'experts' picking against us without giving any credit for our last win, and then WIN AGAIN, I have to say i'll be disappointed if we don't get to the super bowl.
there haven't been a LOT of mistakes, but there have been some. you don't get to 13-3 being a bad team. were we lucky sometimes? YES we were. Did luck go against us sometimes? YES it did. Did we manage to put ourselves in position to 'make our own luck' enough through the season to win win win? YES WE DID.
I'd have to admit the only two games i feel we really didn't play up to the capabilities of the team were the philly game and the MNF game against the taints. Those two games seemed as if we didn't 'game plan' the best and then failed to make adjustments.
Overall, I'm happy with our season, i'm happy with new records being set, i'm happy with the team. Will be disappointed if we don't go to the superbowl, but i'll also bet the sun will come up the next day...and we have the foundation for the team to be GOOD and RELEVANT for years to come

If we lose in the playoffs at any point, would you consider this season to be a success and be happy with it?
YES. but i hate the NFL season is comming to and end man what a year. Be nice to have this year on DVD after we win the Superbowl.

I had this team pegged at 13-3 when the season started, and I thought I was being "realistic".
