That’s the price of blowing games. And starting a season so deep in the hole.
Change any one of those games, and we’d have a good shot.
Change 2 and we’d be cruising.
True, but they also just squeaked out the games in Tampa and San Fran. Could be even worse. The record is what is is because this team took a while to put it together. That’s youth, and a new defensive system, and injured starting and backup quarterbacks, and probably some mistakes by the coaching staff — especially waiting too long to pull Austin Davis. (I also think that they could have beaten Arizona the first time if they go with Hill much earlier.) I still hold out hopes of 9-7, and if that’s not good enough to get to the playoffs, well they just weren’t good enough this year. Should be pretty damn hungry in 2015, though.
