After watching the post game interviews I can't help but think this team really feels accomplished after this game. Almost a we overcame the impossible type of attitude. Wow!
I can understand your feelings as a fan. I saw the game and the numerous mistakes, penalties, etc. But still, looking at it from our players' point of view, they did pull out a Win, after a week of heavy scrutiny and a day of hard fought battles. I can give 'em a few moments of feeling good about the outcome.
Film break down on Monday will bring 'em back to some reality about their individual play-by-play performances.
Maybe we as fans could switch places with them and let them watch us get the crap kicked out of us. Then we could sit there after the game talking about our accomplishments.
Made me laugh, but I'll pass.
I recognize my limitations and life does a good enough job of trying to kick the crap outta me as it is. I see no need to subject myself to the physical annihilation I would surely suffer at the hands of any NFL opponent, hell bent on making me wish I was never born.
It really amazes me how the win will over shadow all the mistakes and poor play.
Wins do that sorta thing. Ever heard some of these time-honored phrases, like:
“Winning isn't everything, but the will to win is everything.”
~ Vince Lombardi
“Every time you win, you're reborn; when you lose, you die a little.”
~ George E. Allen
“Winning is not everything, but the effort to win is.”
~ Zig Ziglar
“If you're not making mistakes, you're not taking risks, and that means
you're not going anywhere. The key is to make mistakes faster than the
competition, so you have more chances to learn and win.”
~ John W. Holt, Jr.
Etc., etc.
Me, I'm seriously glad we won, messy as it all was. Need to trust (and hope) our Coaches will continue to work on improving the many shortcomings we all witnessed Sunday. For now, let the team enjoy the win. I know I'm going to.
We'll all have plenty of time ahead to analyze/overanalyze the Bucs vs Cowboys game during the coming week, leading up to CHI @ DAL on MNF, Game 4.
