Right now all I am seeing is the same unbridled confidence that you all had after we blew out the Steelers and Ravens the first times we played them. But after both of those big wins we played poorly and lost two straight games. If we look good in the playoffs I will have no problem praising Zac AND I HAVE ALREADY SAID THAT.
i never understood why some can't admit that the amazing "culture" and "vibe" were here when we lost to the 4-13 Jets, then lost at home to the 8-9 Browns by 25 points, then lost at home to the Chargers by 19 points, then lost at home to the Forty-niners.
Because during the season, there are ebbs and flows. Sometimes a team looks past an opponent (especially young ones), sometimes they don't match up well with a specific opponent, there's luck involved at times, turnovers are often a huge factor, etc. I think everyone understands that. Bottom line...we needed to win three straight, we did. We needed to beat either KC or CLE to win the division, and we beat the defending AFC Champs and didn't even fly starters to CLE. Where, I might add, the damn scout team almost won.
Playoff wins never mattered in past defenses of the staff, counselor.
