The season has not lived up to my expectations that were based more on hope than fact

Could it be that we just had a weak schedule last year? The mighty AFC and NFC west aren't exactly the cream of the crop.

I believe that is why the nfl gave us the schedule we have now was to break the mirror we all were looking at. Jake sucked just as bad last year. We did have a good run d, but we had a bad secondary.

The rotating south/east/west/north inter division games are set years in advance I think. Does suck though they keep giving us the damn Giants in NY every year. We had them last game of the year last year in NY, a preseason game with them in NY, and a game with them in a few weeks in NY. And we get the Jets today in NY. wtf?

I told you all in the offseason that last year was an aberration. We went 12-4 because we had one of the easiest schedules in the league. Those of you who are surprised by this years results must have become new fans last year because this has always been a typical Fox team. Win when the schedule is easy then crash back down to earth when the schedule is harder and expectations are high.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
