RIP having hope or expectations of winning a game

[Carl Spackler]

since Week 1 of 2011, I’ve always held out hope that we could win a game. Sure, this sorry heartless bunch of dumbasses (save for 5 players) generally loses and brings out the nihilist in me. 

But deep down, I think most of the Huddle — the true fans — thought we could win today. We still want Rivera fired, mind you, but with the top 10% of the team active and playing, there was hope. 

That hope is gone. As a once-beloved old horn dog once said, “the energy has been sucked out of this organization.” 

It’s gonna take a while for our new coach to get enough players with talent AND heart AND confidence to win again. There is no longer any faith that we can win a football game. We are the new Browns, the laughingstock, everyone’s little brother, the team you get excited about seeing on your schedule so you jump to buy tickets.

we’re a free win. And we will be a free win for 10-12 games next year, regardless of whatever coach inherits this godforsaken pile of dogshit that was once a good team.

Don’t think this team is that far from winning games, it’s not like we’re getting blown out. We just keep making mistakes at critical points in the game and of course there’s the problem with coaching and our GM.

I will have no hope aslong as Cam Newton is our starting QB.He is garbage and needs to go asap.

 

As far as problems go, Cam is lower on the totem pole than

Rivera, Washington, the whole defensive line, the whole secondary minus Jackson, the whole line backing corps minus Luke, Funchess, the offensive line and Gano

I didn’t expect us to go 0-8 in the second half of the season though. We gotta be the first to start 6-2 and finish 0-8.
