We've lost. Cannot be undone, lets move on.
We absolutely need to beat the teams that come to us until the Cowboys. If that game wasn't a must win, now it becomes one. We need to go undefeated until our bye week if we want to contend. We also need to beat Tampa at Tampa (which is doable).
How do we do that?
Doing what we did yesterday for three quarters. Dominate the lines. Kearse's loss is BIG if it's long term or for the season (which if it's not, I wouldn't put him on the IR just yet). But the line has depth, and if there's one thing we were proud was our depth. McDougle and Juqua Thomas need to step in and make plays. Then you have Howard and Cole on the right side, which should be enough.
The Secondary needs to regroup. Losing Hood for a long period of time, added to Lito's health sucks. That implies, that, Wynn, who did a good job yesterday, will return punts and kicks. Mahe is done. I don't care what or how Reid thinks of him, Mahe needs to go, and we need to get either Strickland or anyone we can find. Hanson isn't a starting corner, by any means.
Get the offense going by doign what they did yesterday. Get in shootouts if anything. The early schedule did us a favor, we need to take every advantage of it.
And now, the Giants game in New York will have a meaning
Nothing is done. The team does have the players and the leaders to overcome such a loss, and they will do that.
