Offseason momentum

[Sun Tzu 7 12,375]

You know... where winning games at the end of a losing season helps you going into the one?

Im Not saying the team should tank but can we agree the whole offseason momentum thing is a myth?

New team that hasn’t played a real game together in over 6 months?  Yeah offseason momentum is not a thing in the era of free agency.

Still...don't know how to call timeouts, still  OL & DL getting pushed around, still bad penalties, still horrendous special teams, still confusion after breaking huddles, still can't get short yards by running, still hiring coaches that don't have a proven winning record, still have dead weight on the field, still have a miserable fan base....now what do we do?

This is a goos example of what happens when you rest all your vets.. They come our lazy, rusty, and sloppy..

This...  So much this.  Quinn isn't learning this lesson, it appears.

Preseason matters! Sorry if you don't agree!

All you can say is this team was not ready to play today. So who or where does the blame lay? This just keeps showing up ever so often and someone should take ownership of it.

Oh no! winning the last three pointless games of last year meant SO MUCH. Yeah, our draft position would have been immensely better. Yes, we could have drafted way better players but think about how cool it was to win three POINTLESS games. Gotta go with Quinn on this one. Much better to win pointless games than get better players. 100%

Everyone was so high on us winning those few throw away games at the end of the season.. After watching this, anyone else wanna talk about our superbowl chances? How about that superbowl window lol

You cant tell some people this.. For some reason common sense eludes some people here.. I argued about at the end of last season and all i heard is how good the team was and injuries were the only thing holding us back.. Nah, bad coaching is bad coaching.. Please never listen to anyone's advice about a football team thats never played a game of football in thier lives..

I agree preseason matters when you have a coach that uses it to prepare.

Now if you see the dline looking like it will stop the run or apply pressure in preseason. THAT doesn’t matter.

He is a slow learner!! But he continues taking the path of failure.

I thought injuries masked the fact the defense wasn’t going to be that good.

All the people pointing it how sloppy offenses are the 1st game are probably also the ones pointing out the defensive performance from week 1 last year...

That would be such a bad point to make. The offense wasn't just bad. It wasn't just that they didn't have chemistry early on. Playcalling was terrible. execution was even worse. And oh god that offensive line looked worse than it did in any game last year

I remember folks so into their feelings about we should win for the sake of the next season. 

What good did that do today!? The season opener.

each season is separate and has its own story.
