But the reason people talk about losses by 3 points, etc., is that they show that the team is close and not just getting blown out constantly. Although I know that's not the popular narrative around here.

When you factor in injuries this year, one cannot objectively think some of those would be wins if they were healthier. Some will jump up and say injuries are not an excuse, but come on, this team was devastated this year.
smh.
At 4-23-1 this is beyond the injury excuse. But I'm not going to convince you or even try. We disagree about how close this team is to being even an average team.
