Everyone seems to not understand the situation here. Just because we have a football team in the professional league does not mean we have a team which can compete with other established teams. We've brought a hoopty with racing slicks to a drag race and hope to compete because it kinda looks like the other cars. 

WE ARE NOT READY FOR PRIMETIME. The game today tells me we made a lot of progress. We competed hard for three quarters, which is a hell of an improvement over the last two weeks. 

Did anyone seriously believe we were going to win this game today? Anyone? Yet so many of you are trashing the team's whole effort after the wheels came off much later than anyone believed they would. We made progress. Better plays, better execution, better effort. Unfortunately we have a short week to work on improving more but we take the positives where we can. 

This team is improving. But if you're going to let the final score and the last quarter collapse be the basis for your overall judgement, then you're mistaken.

I believe we were in position to win this game today and the coaches are the reason we didn't.
