At the time, I think we were all in la-la land with the 3-0 start. But upon further reflection, we were two miracle touchdown throws against Dallas, a goal post bounce against the Seahawks, and a just barely good enough performance against the struggling Bears offense away from an 0-3 start.

My initial thought was that this is an example of a team finding ways to win. In reality, the offense was still struggling, and the defense was showing signs of the symptoms they're suffering from now in terms of not getting turnovers and pressuring the quarterback.

All of those things were recipes for disaster that have come to fruition.
