A nice bounce back game against the Raiders (though that had to do as much with the Raiders as with Detroit).

So going into the bye, how are we feeling?

I'm feeling pretty good. There's a large good-not-great class in the NFC, and we are right in the middle of it. I see no reason why this team can't be in the NFC Championship game.

This does feel like the strike-now window, too. The OC is almost certainly gone after this year, as well as some other assistants, too, I'd suspect. More than one owner/GM is going to think "We want to bring that Campbell culture into our building."

All of which is to say, if someone is selling at the trade deadline, I'd be willing to give up a real draft asset to bring in a Real Dude.

Oh, and I think that it might be a long-term good thing that they got their teeth kicked in by the Ravens. That's the sort of "every given Sunday" wake up that Campbell will be able to use to keep them motivated.
