only AFC teams feel this way

we have been pretty unfortunate to play four teams that all lost to us last year, with good to elite QBs, and they came into the year knowing they had to get past us to get to the next level

the browns, chargers ravens and bills all spent the entire offseason focused almost solely on how to beat us

and in the end, what REALLY beat us...was turnovers

we gonna be fine

The problem is that it's still steering into the skid for a team that thinks it's better than it is.

Teams have been trying to beat Tom Brady for 20 years - he still beats them. If you consider yourselves a team that can go down in the history books, you don't lose games by beating yourself. You don't come out flat in prime-time matchups.

And no, you don't put up historically bad performances on one side of the football for 5 weeks.

This isn't a question of 'taking a teams best shot' right now. This team isn't as good as it thinks it is and it refuses to acknowledge that fact. Y'all gave up like 400 yards passing to Jalen Hurts, FFS.

They're not playing well - you're playing poorly. And until that fact is acknowledged it's going to keep happening. What worries me is that I hoped that the Buffalo game would humble them and it certainly doesn't appear that it did.

The team has to be seeing all these stories talking about how much they suck. Gotta be some motivation.

So I wonder what bullshit excuses we’ll hear from Mathieu to avoid acknowledging their poor play this week…

Until we hear them acknowledge their own lack of focus, effort and execution, it’s all just masturbating.
