Winning ugly... it's our thing. And I finally accept it

The first four weeks of the season, I was insanely frustrated because we weren't blowing out teams we should blow out. But guess what? We won all those games. And we're still winning games. And we haven't lost any games yet this season. Would it be nice to blow someone out and play flawlessly? Of course it would. But I've finally accepted the fact that, as long as we win... who cares how we do it? All that matters is the W. And we have six of them so far this season... along with ZERO losses. So keep on winning ugly, loves of my life. Because you're WINNING. And that's what's most important.

We play a slow game, via Defense and Running the ball.   the good news is that it will keep us in every game, bad news is it will keep the Other team in the game, but unless they can run the ball better then us or play defense better then us, it's not going to matter and we will win.  

So far we havent played anyone that has been able to dictate the game to us, we've been the team that's been setting the pace. I'm curious to see what happens when we play Green Bay, our Defense is sneakly elite, we have 4 players on Defense that should be leading the NFC voting(Short, Norman, Luke, Davis), and that's a scary level of talent considering.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
