naw, I thought the team was flatten out on offense and defense right around the Alex injury. The play of Alex and the receiving corp was poor...and with the Oline collapsing do to injury, I don't it would have mattered. I thought it was telling that Colt came in and played better than Alex immediately.

Plus the defense played right around the 12-9 ranked in the league the first half....not bad. But the second half of the year it fell off to around 20-25 in the league. It had an impact.
