I ain't worried yet, either. The league isn't settled hierarchy-wise yet. Everybody's going to lose some games. This one hurts a bit, due to the fact that a few minor things could have sent things in the other direction (just a few inches on that Hubbard punt tip). They still had things moving on offense minus Mixon and Green in the 3rd, which gives hope. Either way, this was a tough team on the road and a QB in Newton who's physically unlike anyone basically ever to play in the league. That's not an easy factor to deal with. Love him or hate him, he's a hell of a player and much tougher than he gets credit for.
Next week will be tough, but coming home vs Miami will hopefully be the game where this team is complete again. I hope to god that Vontaze isn't fat and out of shape when he returns. He's a game changer and we need him and Brown badly. It's been shown during his other suspensions/injuries that this is a different defense when Burfict is on the field.
No matter hat, there's no denying that this team is a lot better than the 2017 version.
