Good for you owning up to it.
But... I have to say it.. I told you that you were overreacting way too early. :tongue2::tongue2::tongue2:
Sometimes, you just gotta have patience. It was preseason, guys don't try, you dont game plan, you dont call aggressive plays etc. etc.
Still a lot of season left, so things could change as teams continue to adjust to what we've shown, but that's the thing, it's a long haul approach. You can't look at things in a vacuum in this league. The good teams, coaches and players find ways to adjust.Mafioso, cuchulainn, danmarino and 1 other person like this. -
Yeah but who predicted how this season would unfold so far even remotely correctly?
Specifically, is there anyone who went on record saying our defense would be top 3 in points allowed, our run defense would miraculously go from 3rd worst to 4th best, and that our offense would average a league-worst 12.2 ppg?
No one predicted this or anything close to it. And even among naysayers is there anyone who predicted we'd lose to the Jets 20-6 (or any score with 14+ margin), a team that at the time looked like they were gunning for the #1 overall pick in 2018?
Everyone has to eat some crow so far.Mafioso, danmarino and Redwine4all like this. -

Im not buying Miami quite yet. I still think their defense will have to keep holding teams under 20 to have a shot until proven otherwise. In other words, I am hesitant on the phones offense until I see a string of games like the last two with improvement. Remember we got shut out in the first half again

I dont think any of us though imagined the offense being so inept this season and the defense the beacon of our team thus far.Redwine4all likes this. -
Nobody predicted that in late October the Jets would be in first place in the AFC East and the patriots in last, but we are an Austin Sefarian-Jenkins TD away from that scenario. In other words, it happened, it just didn't get called that way. Things tough to predict, so nobody should feel silly about making wrong predictions. What I find funnier than crow-eating people are the people who predict 20 things and pat themselves on the back when they are right about 3 of them.

It is getting fun to watch the defense again.

But really, had that TD counted, as it should have, the Jests would have been trailing the Pats by three points, and with 8 minutes to play still. Pats would still find a way to win especially with the greater sense of urgency in the event said Td counted.Last edited: Oct 19, 2017Mexphin likes this. -
