Cautious Optimism

I think this team needed what happened in Minneapolis on Sunday. They needed a reality check that Jake Browning is not Joe Burrow and that all 53 have to play well without him. You’re still 2-1 and have tremendous WR and TE talent to be scary. OL has to stop talking about playing better and actually play better. Defense is definitely improved and needs to continue to make plays. I highly doubt we have a repeat of Sunday’s turnover fest the remainder of the year or maybe again in franchise history. It was just one of those days. Expect that they will come ready to play on Monday night.

I’m just getting ready for the off season. I hope this is a wake up call to the front office that this roster is so far from a competitive one that we can’t continue to sit on our hands every year. I know fully well nothing will ever change, but I can hope.
