While I like 'drama' as much as the next person (I guess) if we lose to the bolts it isn't the end of the world. Personally, I see our best shot at our first season win against the colts in London. I'm most definitly am of the 'show me' mind set; I'm sick of the 'hype' about our supposed improvements. If we're 'really' improved then show it to me on the field in a regular game.

 

I don't like Gus's coaching style; the 'ra-ra-sis-boom-ba' stuff should be for the cheerleaders. However, the bottom line isn't style but results. To start calling for Gus to be fired after only two regular season games is ridiculous. Let's see how the season plays out; if we don't reach at least 8-8 by the end of the season (or if it become mathematically impossible for us to do so sooner) then I'm for telling Gus to hit the bricks... but not before. Give'em a chance with the (supposedly) improved team we have and let's see what happens.

 

Until then, I remain optimistically skeptical; that is to say, I hope for the best but I'm not buying the hype anymore. This team has to prove it.
