Finishing strong

Earlier in the season, I remember saying "well at least we're good enough to beat bad teams".

Turns out we weren't.

We've lost like 5-6 games to really bad teams. We'd be entrenched in the playoffs if this were true, even if we weren't a real contender and couldn't beat good teams. Such a waste of a season

It's not just that we're bad, or that the teams we beat were that bad. It's the lies that it created along the way. That #2 defense rating? We give up very little passing yardage, because either your team is terrible and can't protect their QB, or you have a good team and you just run right over us in the rushing game. Not building up many yards against us? Hard to when we give you an average starting spot around your 43 yard line. 

The wins that made Sam Darnold look great also made our defense look like the best since the '85 Bears. 

This year, we beat the wounded and the witless, sometimes the wounded witless when we got lucky. This team was worse than last years and much worse than the year before's, we just got a very favorable schedule when it came to playing some teams that were just falling apart. Had we just faced the Jags and the Lions, we'd be deep in the playoff hunt right now.

And that's some crazy poo right there.
