Our biggest win is 7 points over a bad team in a shootout after their punter inexplicably decided he could be Adrian Peterson and was wrong. I am not saying we need to be the Bills or Chiefs. I am saying that if every game is a battle and we play multiple bad teams and cant dominate any of them, we are probably not contender. The Bucs dominated the Cowboys 19-3 and played us even the first half then clearly dominated us in the second half. We are not on a different level than the Falcons and Panthers we are on the same level and that is not a playoff level. Are the refs partly to blame? Absolutely. But those refs are not taking the playoffs off, in fact they are just getting warmed up for the playoffs. We need to be able to dominate at least some teams to contend against playoff teams and playoff refs. We are not there. To get there I believe we need to accept rebuilding.
Fair enough. I notice you’ve not addressed the points I’ve brought up about the lack of playing time the “Starting Unit” has ever had playing together. You don’t think that impacts continuity? You honestly think a backup team playing with walk on RBs, and WRs due to injuries as well as third string DBs should be dominating any other NFL teams? Especially with the refs screwing them? I think that is unrealistic. That’s just me maybe.
