Re: Did the 6-2 start raise our expectations to an unrealistic level?

I'm right there with you firstdown. The wins in Dallas and Philly got everybodys hopes up and I get pissed when we lose because I know we CAN win every week. But my disappointment is tampered by the fact that we have a first year coach and a new offensive system that is going to take time whether we like it or not. We're on the right track. It is absolutely foolish to start calling out Jason Campbell. I think he's on a pretty good pace as far as learning the system and that would be more apparent if the o-line and receivers were up to speed. This thing can change at any time and impatience on the fans part will not speed the process. Giving up when things are tough is for losers. Campbell and company will prevail in spite of the uneducated fans who call for his head. That's the kind of guy he is and that's why I like him leading our team. There is nothing wrong with high expectations but lets not get ignorant about it. As far as making the playoffs last year, yes we did, we also are learning a new system this year which according to any QB who has played it, says it takes about 3 years to get it down right. We didn't last long in the playoffs and if wasn't for the fact that we were playing with a lot of emotion after losing Sean, and we had a QB step in who had what..8 years or so in Saunders system, we probably wouldn't have even made it. Give JC time in this system and see what happens.
