Yes. And yes, that team. I'll give you they played physical smash-mouth football in the 2nd half of the SD game, but that's about it. You're not going to convince me this is a physical team that imposes their will on either side of the ball. Shoot, I'd be happy if just one side of the ball did it somewhat consistently. Maybe the D did 2 years ago in Wade's fist year, but that's been a loooong time ago.

We played like shit today. Period, exclamation point. I still don't think we suck, and I don't think the Colts are better than us.

I don't think we suck, but I don't think we're very good right now. And do think the Colts are better right now. JMHO. And believe me, it hurts to say that.

Its week 3, and we're 2-1. Regardless of how we got there, we're there. Surely you didn't thing we were going to go thru the entire season without laying an egg.

Never said that they'd go 16-0. However, this team is supposed to be a SB contender and I expect them to show up. They got asses kicked today. I don't care if it's pick-6's, ST TD's, whatever. It's a team game and they all got their asses kicked. 30-9, ZERO points in the 2nd half when they were still in the game - in spite of the 1rst half egg laying. And BTW, I don't care about what SF, GB, ATL, or anyone else does. They're a non-factor. I care about our team and they're not playing well..

They've played basically 30 minutes of good, quality offensive and defensive football (2nd half in SD) so far in 3 games. I'm glad they have 2 wins, wish it was 3, but I'm not happy with what they're doing and will express it. Other than the 2 wins, I can't imagine what positives people can pull out of what they're doing right now. Great, 2 wins, but how many more wins can we expect with how they're playing? That's my concern. They better figure it out soon.
