This year we could be sitting at 3-2 instead of 0-5.
In 09 we won a bunch of games we lost in 10. (7 points or less)
"Cardiac Cats" and all.
That's the value of the "what if" game. In 2010 and 2011 we beat a single winning team each year but one year we were 4-12 and a disaster and the other year we were 9-7 and BAAAACK, BABY!!!
2010 really sent home the message about winning/losing close games, for me. We lost a bunch of close games and the Packers won a bunch of close games...we go 4-12 and blow it up and they win the SB. Also, it's sort of like how for decades the Browns and Bengals lost close games to the Steelers every year. I'm no math-talking guy, but if 90% of the games are so damn close why do the Browns and Bengals win so few of 'em? Numbers, man.
