wk. 5 postgame observations

This is how I feel as of late. Found this at BTSC.. Small excerpt from a BTSC article. Resonates deeply with me at this point.. Maybe I need to take a break

"I have essentially stopped hanging out on BTSC in the first few days following a loss. This isn't me sticking my head in the sand—I just don't feel up to all the negativity. Surely it's possible to be a realist without wallowing in misery. But that's after a loss. I thought it would be safe after a win. But apparently all this win proved is just how bad the coaching staff really is.

I'm not saying Mike Tomlin and his staff are perfect (he said as much at his last press conference). It's possible some other coach or coaches might be doing a better job with the same group of players. But it's also possible this would be a much worse team with someone else at the helm. You can't run the experiment twice, so we'll really never know who's right. But I do know that firing your coaching staff every year or two isn't a successful strategy.

 

Good post, Busman. I think this quote stands out to me.

To be fair, I think the post-Bucs misery didn't take as long as I thought it might to get back to the usual good banter around here.

 

we won, but it's time to get serious now going to the hated brownie den. crush their cookies.

 

The same goes for Ben. Who the hell was keeping track of ABs catch count during the game???

 

Probably AB

 

He shouldn't be ... and if he was, he should have kept it to himself. Our focus should be team goals, not manufactured "records".
