48 hours ago the Huddle had Super Bowl visions. Now we should pack the season up and go home?

In the past 48 hours, we've had a bad loss and suffered a slew of key injuries. Is that all it takes for people to give up on the entire team and season? Do you guys think that every team that makes the playoffs does so without taking a bad loss and getting banged up along the way?

 

Last time I checked we were still tied for 1st place in the division. We still have Luke anchoring that defense with that great defensive line. We have KB out there looking like the best rookie receiver since Randy Moss. 

 

We're 3 games into a 16 game season. I have full confidence that we're going to beat the Ravens and go to 3-1 and then we'll see where things go from there.

The season isn't over by any means.

 

1. Atlanta still has a terrible OL.

2. Atlanta sill has no pass rush.

3. Tampa Bay is garbage.

4. New Orleans defense is the worst in the league.

 

And last but certainly not least: Bitches ain't sh*t but hoes and tricks.

 

The sky got a little dark on Sunday, but it is not falling.

i think people are more deflated than anything. winning 13 out of the last 14 had us used to deeply enjoying every single gameday and then getting blown the fug out has really brought us back down to earth. i haven't even really wanted to think about football for the last two days.

 

we'll show up to play against the ravens. i think we'll win… if not we'll be competitive, and that's all you can ask for, especially with the injuries we've got mounting.

This fanbase has trust issues. In someway, it's understandable due to all the up and down years we've had, but you'd think, eventually, the fans will grow some tough skin and strive through the adversity just like the team has to and will.

If we can get healthy we'll be ok, but have you seen our next 7 games?  Ravens, Bears, Bengals, Packers, Seahawks, Saints, and the Eagles.  That a tough stretch to go through with the injuries we have.  Can we do it sure.  We need to be realistic.  If we can just find a way to win three of those games we'll have a chance to steal a wildcard down the stretch.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
