I Am Incredibly Encouraged by What I've Seen From This Team

[Hoenheim]

Lately, took care of business and beat 2 bad teams  (Saints and Giants). Then we took 3 good playoff teams to the wire (Cheifs, Buccaneers, Eagles).

We don't have anywhere near the level of talent those last 3 had and still played close games. 

I sincerely believe we are 3-4 good players, more disciplined football and experience coaching for Canales and crew, away from being a very good team next year.

Yea legette has dropsies chubba fumbled a game away and we can't stop the run (qbs or rbs ). But most of these issues can be resolved in 1 off-season.  All of them can be resolved in 2 off seasons 

I see a ton of fans getting worked up about these losses. I just feel like people aren't looking at the big picture and forgetting the context of all of this.

Having a high draft pick when our team is this close to competing with the big guys is not a bad thing!!

Yep. People are frustrated by the losses but we're competing in every game while protecting our draft position. Given our current situation that is perfect. Do that every Sunday.

The Panthers and QB Bryce Young are both on an upward trend.

I look for the team to be playoff contenders sooner, rather than later.

We’re 1 fumble, 1 WR drop, and one horseshit call away from 3-0 the last three weeks and in the driver seat for the division. 
 

This team is not healthy and is asking a lot of its rookies. We’re missing the best NT in the game. The way we’re playing right now is winning football with a healthy roster. We should be super stoked for what’s to come.

Entirely agree, and these loses are character building. This team wasnt going to go anywhere this year but the turnaround has been amazing. Teams typically go through this RIGHT before they become good and turn into a winning team. A good offseason next year could be special.
