I'm seeing a lot of doom and gloom posts around here after the loss to the 49ers. Totally understandable and I get everyone is disappointed after starting 6-3, but I just wanted to throw my hat in the pot and say I still think the immediate future is looking great for the franchise!
This was supposed to be a 5 win team this year. They exceeded expectations, even if they lose out. They showed a lot of promise and made one of the best trades in NFL history. And it's only going to get better with another huge draft coming up. Two firsts and two seconds in this upcoming draft as well as our great draft from this year continuing to develop, I'd say things are awesome!
The talent just isn't there on defense. The best player went out for the season in game 1. We will need to reload in the draft and make some signings.
Injuries have also been huge. If Adams, Penny, and Dallas can stay healthy this is a lot different of a team. The running game was smoking hot before the Walker and Dallas injuries. And that's without Penny at all.
So do we REALLY want Pete fired? Or did the great start just change everyone's expectations and now we need to be more realistic about the rebuild? Just five weeks ago many of us felt he should be coach of the year.
Just my two cents. Thought I'd add a positive outlook to all the doom and gloom!
