I'm not trying to provoke anything. And I'm sorry to anyone who thinks I'm a jerk for the comments I've made on this thread. But it annoys me to see someone who calls himself a "fan" try to take away from one of very few good seasons we've ever had by writing it off as luck. I don't know what your problem is, why you can't just believe that we were actually good last year. Being 0-3 this year has nothing to do with last year. There were 8 months between our last game of last season and our first game this season. Are you gonna say that Charles Grant and Will Smith sucked last year too, just because they have no sacks this year? Or that Marques Colston was terrible last year just because he hasn't done much this year? It just makes no sense.

You are provoking something DUDE! You keep saying "you", this and that. Just state your opinion on a thread and move on. I am not saying we had a bad year but its not as great as a lot of people make it out to be. When you see the play of last year there were holes and when we played against good teams we got spanked. The same problems exist last year, the year before and the year before that. I am saying WE SUCKED on the O-line and D line we just over acheieved last year. If you want to be in games and you want to win consistantly the way to do that is build top -elite, O lines and D lines
You name the DE's like they are something special but until the live up to the hype you create they are still nothing and don't deserve the money they are getting paid. They made promises and obviously so far they aren't living up to it. If you are that great and make a promise or expectations then they should damn well live up to it. THEY ARE NOT.

Here is last years results. To tell you guys the truth...we kinda were LUCKY.

REGULAR SEASON
Sep 10 @ CLEVELAND BROWNS 19 - 14 (barely beat a crappy team)

Sep 17 @ GREEN BAY PACKERS 34 - 27 (same here)

Sep 25 vs. ATLANTA FALCONS 23 - 3 (This should be a no brainer why we won)

Oct 01 @ CAROLINA PANTHERS 18 - 21 (Loss to a good team)

Oct 08 vs. TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS 24 - 21 (See first comment)

Oct 15 vs. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES 27 - 24 (Lucked up)

Oct 29 vs. BALTIMORE RAVENS 22 - 35 (Lossed to a good team)

Nov 05 @ TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS 31 - 14 (beat a crappy team)

Nov 12 @ PITTSBURGH STEELERS 31 - 38 (see Baltimore comments)

Nov 19 vs. CINCINNATI BENGALS 16 - 31 (loss to a so-so team)

Nov 26 @ ATLANTA FALCONS 31 - 13 (Beat a crappy team again)

Dec 03 vs. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS 34 - 10 (see above comment)

Dec 10 @ DALLAS COWBOYS 42 - 17 (Coach P knew the other team)Great win though.

Dec 17 vs. WASHINGTON REDSKINS 10 - 16 (lost to a so-so team)

Dec 24 @ NEW YORK GIANTS 30 - 7 ( beat a crappy team)

Dec 31 vs. CAROLINA PANTHERS 21 - 31 (still got beat)

POSTSEASON
Jan 13 vs. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES 27 - 24 (just sqweeked by)

Jan 21 @ CHICAGO BEARS 14 - 39 (got ransacked by a good team)

So yes, I would say we got lucky folks. I am in no way down playing what they did last year because I will remember that season for ever, but luck was a factor.
