Let's see....
The biggest fluke in game 1 was that we had 5 turnovers and were anywhere close to having a shot to win that game. A team with a -5 turnover differential losing the game in any way shape and form is damn near a guarantee, aka very much not a fluke. If you have -5 turnover and you win it is a fluke, so yea some fluke stuff went against us, but 9 times out of 10 that game would have been way out of reach.
And yesterday we got to play against Cooper Rush, a guy who was starting his second game in 5 years in the NFL. Just him being on the field is a fluke, but he is 2-0 now, so him winning is no fluke, daggummit.
Anyways, close losses are easier to stomach when we weren't favored to win them. Hopefully we have a shot against the Jets, because 0-3 before facing an improved Dolphins team could be daunting.
He's also 45 years old. A rag tag o-line of no names defending a 45 year old man...sounds like some sort of movie script.
That 45 year old man is still the best in the game.
