How do other teams approach this subject? Is it even a subject for them? The way I see it is - this is a 16-week war. You should give people time...
It's not a double standard. Sure, our record was lesser than NO - but in no way were we considered a "lesser opponent". Oakland? Denver. Yep,...
Not at all. I've already stated that we field a superior product. So when we meet up (in regular season) with tough opponents, we normally play...

And then what happened...you know, playoffs. Tell us a story, BBH! :lolol:

I don't know. Is it truly being spoiled if we have a superior product and expect results? I thought being spoiled was just expecting results...
It's a sickness, for sure.
FB I shy away from, it's too "look at me!". I use Twitter extensively, but you won't find a single selfie there... lol.
