In no way is next week a must win.
KC, SF, Cle, Mia, NYJ... 5 teams we can easily beat... this translates to 10 wins... the other 3 games are NE (2x) and Den. We can beat Denver giving us 11 wins. The key is that we can't take a loss next week as the end of the world. we have a favorable schedule for at least 10 wins.
