As I said in the gameday thread we did not score enough points to win. Our defense also choked in pressure situations. Drives after scores, third downs. Basically both sides of the ball let us down. So did Ron by punting the ball at their 40 with six minutes left down by 4. That is awful. So did Scott Turner - every time I watch this guy call a game I ask myself if he would be in the league without his last name - resounding no.
The only thing we are clinging to right now is “it was game one, and they are a good team”. They also are playing game one and traveled across the country. What will the excuse be when we lose to the Giants? Because we are going to lose to the Giants.

One more thing….our oline is shit. I had a very bad feeling about it going in. So is our secondary. They looked like chickens with their heads cut off. Completely confused. Our coaching staff is not very good. Unfortunately it is the best we can ever hope to get here. It is not really a mystery as to why we are stuck in a perpetual cycle of poor to mediocre play.

My hopes were up (as always) because I figured if last years team could win 7 this team could win 10. However in the back of my mind I knew this year’s schedule was tougher, now throw in Fitz injury- doesn’t sound like a little injury (its the hip and he is older) Leno not looking like any sort of protection and oh boy. I also said more than once that if we lost to the Chargers we were in for a long year with 8 wins being our ceiling. I think 6-7 is more realistic.
