Re: Time for Doom 'n' Gloom
I think the reason that it is particularly harrowing to watch this season collapse like the last umptillion is that we are sending are first round pick to Denver next year. In year's past, when things started to go south and the playoffs began to look more and more remote, we could at least be buoyed by talk about maybe getting Kellen Winslow or Braylond Edwards. Not this year.
We needed to make it into the playoffs for that trade to begin to make sense, at least on a mathematical level (if Jason Campbell is the real deal it will make sense regardless).
Anyway, we really aren't that good. Oakland played a mediocre game and we still found a way, against all odds and reason, to lose. Just like last year. Just like Spurrier. Just like Norv.
