Good results given the dead money and unfathomable lack of quality on special teams.

I have high hopes for 2019.

We've seen the exact same story 4 years running.

2012: 5-5, dropped 3 straight, end 7-9
2014: 4-4, dropped 3 straight, end 7-9
2015: 4-4, dropped 4 straight, end 7-9
2016: 4-4, dropped 2 straight thus far...

Facts.

We are wallowing in mediocrity.

And yet the players have the audacity to say "stick with us, it's not how you start but how you finish"

We all know how this is going to end.

7-9 is not the kind of fun I signed up for

Man I remember hoping for 7-9 just so we didn't have double digit losses. I know losing sucks, but it could be way worse. Years from now we will only remember the games, or plays, or the feeling we felt from winning it all or the feeling of pissing it away, but it was fun and provides a break from the daily grind. 10-6 is whats next. ;)

No one in our division is winning the SB this year. Clean up the special teams and keep playing hard.

Everyone gets a participation trophy right?

Yeah, not so much!

Our offense is just sluggish. Our tight end is sluggish. Ingram is sluggish. The offensive line does it's job but is sluggish. The offense wastes precious moments in our last minute come back. We are sluggish getting to the line and never appear aggressive no matter how much time is on the clock.

We need to run some no huddle or hurry up with some intensity and situational awareness for the clock and the number of time outs we have left. Let's not even talk about clock management or our use of time outs like they were draft picks that we can just throw away and hope that the system can take care of the problem.

On the other hand our young defense looks highly motivated.

Hell of an offense but we suck at everything else! The only reason we have 4 wins is because the defenses we played were just as bad as ours and our offense was better!
