I don't mind some negativity and overreaction, but some of it is borderline ignorant. It's amazing to see fans ready to throw 5 straight weeks of outstanding football away over one bad half. Over a 17 point deficit? Jesus, that's nothing when the team on the losing end has a potent offense and a track record of turning momentum in the 3rd quarter.
It's the NFL. Even great teams aren't perfect, and the opponents aren't scrubs. Most games in this league are won or lost by a few points. No matter how good a team is, they aren't typically just destroying opponents week in and week out.
To me, a great team is one that finds ways to win when things aren't going their way. That was what this team did today, and that kind of mental toughness is what makes them potentially exceptional.
