I have to say that after we started 1-4, I thought the season was over. In game 6, I was doing what I used to do with AD( and now Fiske and Verse), watching him wanting to see his greatness while roasting hot dogs over the dumpster fire that was the Rams back in the day. It just didn't seem reasonable to expect a comeback like that, two years in a row. Old School and others kept the faith from start up till now, so good on you!
By nature I am a holdout. I want to see the hand that's going to beat me in cards. I want to hold out giving up on my team until as late as possible. I will admit, at 1-4 I was close and it depended on the Raider game. After that, the Vikings game. The way we won the Seattle game gave me great confidence.
But look back at the schedule following the 1-4 start. There were reasons not to expect great things.
Vegas, the Vikings (playing well), Seattle, Miami, New England, Philly, New Orleans, Buffalo and SF. Some said we'd be lucky to win 3 games, therefore predicting nothing better than a 4-10 record.
I'm glad they were wrong but you can't fault anybody for thinking that way. Well, maybe a little bit.
