Were the injuries too much to overcome this year?

Couldn't agree more !

This team went 4-1 to open the season, yes they did, but and it's a big butt. They just got really lucky, the ball bounced their way a lot. In those 20 quarters the offense was good in perhaps 5 of them ? And the defense won two of those games, of all things. We could very easily started 2-3 or worse.

All the problems with this D were there from the very beginning. Again they might have had 3 or 4 decent quarters in that stretch and ran into an interception machine.

This team had no real shot at all, even without the injuries.
