I'm looking at this with the cup half full, not half empty. Only way we were going to win was with a healthy Robert at 100%.

I think the doctors greened him and said he was good, and they were trying to give Robert the opportunity to try and pull it out.

But he was shook. The pain and instability took him off his game.

Robert didn't want to leave, Shanny didn't want to bench him, the line started allowing pressure which only compounded problems with his mobility, the D started faltering on crucial downs. Robert getting messed up and the cheap shots at such a disciplined team took the wind out of their sails.

It's okay. Really, it is.

Robert will heal up, we'll get some more pieces, get back at it next year. He's a rookie QB who inspired and lead the team to the vaunted NFCE championship title. We swept Dallas, swept Philly, and if not for a fumble by Moss we sweep the G-Men. If he was healthy, I believe we would have run the table all the way through the playoffs.

Look to next year.
