You don't think the fact that we were in games wasn't the coaches making them better? You don't think the fact that had our receivers just CAUGHT a ball we would have won games? There were times these players were put into positions to make plays and they just flat didn't make them. Then throw in our QB and his penchant for turning the ball over and you have what you have. I'm sorry...you may think this was more than a 3 win team, but I don't know a coach in the league who is winning more than 3 games with Matt Barkley at QB and a group of receivers who drop balls at big times, and guys who have been cut by multiple teams in one year starting at corner...I just don't.
Yes, at the beginning of the season, with a fully healthy roster, this team is better than 3 wins. This roster by mid season...no shot.
If I knew for sure, I would tell you. Obviously I don't know. I just know what I believe.

I wonder about Fox and Loggains too. It could be that the coaches are not good enough. I wonder about our overall talent too (even if everyone WAS healthy). I wish we had not had the level of injuries we had this season so we could better understand how much of our problem is a deficiency of player talent, and how much our our problem is due to coaching. We should know a lot more in this 3rd Pace/Fox season. I keep thinking that 3 Pace drafts and 3 Pace free agency periods should have the talent up to a level that the expectation of the coaching staff is to deliver a solid team.
LOL, then we can all argue about what constitutes a solid team and a solid season :-)
