According to this, it may not have been a "fug you" so much as "close isn't fugging good enough."

Who does accept losing?

It's why it's all the more important to start winning. Cannot let the tolerance of losing get into the heart's of the players on this team. When you let that compromise in, you have been mentally defeated, and it could keep us from reaching our ceiling in this era. Cannot let Cam get used to losing, plain and simple.

we accepted it 14 times last year.

I love fluff. Good article though.

Sounds much better than F off Olsen. Fluff articles are great. Feel 4 % better already.

You are the epitomy of a debbie downer. Who says "we" accepted it? I sure as hell didnt, or any of the games this year. Im sure im not the only one who feels this way but winning is the only thing acceptable to me. Stop being a quitter

That article was 100 times better then anything the observer puts out

I knew he didn't curse Olsen out, fug Twitter, and lock that shitty thread.

As for all the debbie downers, football is still a team sport. Cam shouldn't have snapped at Olsen, but I think it speaks volumes that he manned up and admitted he made a mistake (none of us know whether he apologized to Greg beforehand or not, but whatever.)

That being said, we lost because of

1. Retarded blown call on Shockey's TD.

2. Bad run defense (we're down our two starting LBs.)

3. Atrocious special teams play.

4. A pick six on Cam.

5. Bad red zone play.

Take any of those things away and this is a win in a hostile environment against a desperate and more talented defensive team.

But above all else, I'm glad to see our team with an otherworldly talented quarterback who wants to win above all else. I have no concerns that Cam will not put in the effort necessary to be great, and when he learns to keep his emotions in check he will be the franchise leader for years to come.

Im the epitome of a debbie downer becuz i said we accepted 14 losses last year? we went 2-14 last year correct, if u cant admit that ur in denial. I love this team as much as anybody and i've never been pessimistic in any of my post. but the truth is the truth, now will this team accept 2-14 for a season record? We'll see.. (i extremely doubt that they will though)
