So I guess that not only is it easier to keep the faith on gameday(especially when we are winning or tied!). Lol. However it is also easier even in a loss to see the future is bright. It isnt that same old burn down the dumpster fire full of overpaid past their prime vets that leave us in cap hell with no draftpicks coming around the bend. This is a totally different franchise.

Yeah, agree completely. Everything McC has done this year has turned to gold. Unless he drinks himself to oblivion this offseason, he's shown us hope.

1) Draft picks (Crowder, Jarett, M.Jones, ??Smith, ??Scherff)
2) FAs (Will Blackmon, R.JeanFrancois, D.Hopkins, ?Knighton, M.Foster, Dunbar, ?Carriker, ?Gallette, ?Culliver, ?Goldson - at least a leader),
3) Support for Gruden benching Griffin

This is a competent GM who makes more right decisions than not. We are better this year than last and we expect to develop a core team

Wish McC found us a blocking TE however. Hamm and McCoy sucked. Carriker has been okay and has potential
