For so long I have heard that regular season games don't matter, but now it appears that all our questions will be answered in the 10th game of the regular season.
I guess wins are meaningless but losses answer all questions.
That won't change unless the team pulls out a win against impossible odds, while in the national spotlight... And then it will revert as soon as they lose the next game against an inferior opponent.
Some of it, I feel, is the brash nature of youthful fans. They feel the better team wins, and if the lose, they suck.
Some may be the jaded old crowd who let the 90's eat away at them. They won't enjoy a moment until there's at least one Super Bowl ring.
Aside from going into every game worried, I went into this game remembering the lessons of the 90's. I remembered what it was like being a fan of the inferior team, knowing we'd only win a handful of games, but understanding we'd shock two or three superior teams each year.
