Oh stop it, you. Let me wallow in my misery because we are now 0-1 and picking in the top 3 and could have been 1-0 and heading to the SB.
The key is how much better but I do believe this is going to get better because they haven't played together enough and there are 4 new offensive starters. They also were presented a number of elements to work on in the passing game to get ready for the Giants because they will not hold them to 16.
And the fact is that the team was not conditioned to the elements at CAR. They weren't tempered against the heat and humidity and our guy, our one guy we can always count on, Sean Lee, looked all too human clutching at air and looked exhausted. Think he will allow that to continue unless there's something we don't know?
I admit it, the offense was impotent, I didn't expect much and only picked them to score 16 but they were worse than I anticipated but that was then, not now. A new sense of urgency has presented itself.
Ya see, I am not on that Hate Garrett bandwagon because I have seen him rally them before and what they have to work on is apparent. He's not close to the best and not my choice but he is not the worst and he's got some coaches in a mild pre-panic this week, lose Sunday night and it's full on panic. And either I read Booger's quick exit all wrong but there will be a lot of questions asked this week.
They will not play CAR every week in front of a wild crowd ready for some football and having a solid D to add to that problem. CAR was not a good matchup for a win but the perfect one to see where this OL and run game are, as well as QB.
All I am saying is give this some time. You want to go off the deep end when you've seen more, be my guest but this is one game and not a game we were picked to win. If you picked them to win, that's on you. Do better homework on opposing teams. This defense was going to be one of the toughest we would face all season and they proved to be just that. But ours wasn't too shabby, holding them under the magic 17.
It's not what they did; it's what they're going to do. Isn't that the magic of the season?
