I feel like you made my point, at least in my mind. Without Russell to cover for our horrid defense and bad o Line play the rest of the team is exposed as not very good. Russel for sure could carry this team at times and win games in the 4th quarter. We no longer have that crutch, now its all exposed.

This^^ is exactly why Russ was the problem. He's not good enough to carry a bad team which we have been for quite awhile despite our records. With Russ there was no path to the super bowl, now there is. The crutch has been yanked and we fell on our face. It sucks but this year, as you say, we are handicapped but relearning how to walk. I think we all can agree, this is better than hobbling along until either PC died or Russ retired.

Winning against the Broncos was sweet but we will need to treasure that one because it's gonna be a long season.
