Is Football getting frustrating to anyone else?

Hey, if Betts doesn't stumble against the Giants maybe we have another win. If Moss doesn't fumble against Green Bay perhaps we have another win.

It goes both ways.

Yeah, but...

The record is what it is. We are a 5-3 team. At the beginning of the year, I felt we would be .500 at this point so this is definitely welcome.

But independent of the record, this team is what it is. And that's a team who's consistent body of work probably doesn't warrant a .625 winning percentage. Closer to .500 maybe.

We can blame the three major injuries we have, but I still have yet to see the big improvement we are waiting on. We played the 32nd defense today and eeked by ever so slightly. Good job by the ground game today, but it's obvious that the ground game can not carry this team to where it needs to be.

And now I'm getting a bit antsy. The passing game still isn't clicking, hasn't been in 4 weeks, and we are now out of time to correct it. Philadelphia, Dallas, and Tampa on the horizon. Practice time is over, the passing game HAS to be there and now.
