I really thought our defense would be better than what we saw yesterday. 

A lot of our mistakes are correctable.  We have good coaches this year, and I have faith we will correct enough of those mistakes to get 7 wins.  But if we get 7 wins, we will still absorb 10 losses, and losing sucks.  

We still need a lot of players.  "With the 10th pick in the first round, the Jacksonville Jaguars select a CB."  Our secondary pretty much sucked yesterday.

This is a good perspective to take.

We're not there. YET.

I don't see how you can say this when we beat the Bills, Colts, and Dolphins

Way to completely ignore how embarrasingly bad we were in most of the 14 losses.
