Well yeah, but this just provides additional confirmation last year it was coaching, not talent, that was the primary cause for the disastrous record.

If talent is the dominant factor in determining the outcome of games, and assuming Brandt is correct, then comparing Brandt's analysis to our schedule, we should go no worse than 12-4, because every team NOT listed there is presumably less talented than than those on the list. Of the teams on our schedule, Houston and Seattle seem to be rated comparably to us talent wise, while Pittsburgh is the one team on our schedule that is to be presumed demonstrably more talented than we are.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
