Studs: O-line, Aaron Jones, Nixon
Duds: MLF (getting pass-happy, ignoring run, AGAIN), Joe Barry (another failure to hold a lead at end-of-game); Jordan (end-of-game pick). Savage for dropping a Pick6.
What a fun game, though. Yeah, our team lost. But, I was entertained. And, this whole season has been a blast. Good on the players and coaches who battled through injuries, distractions, and fan criticism (some warranted; some over-the-top).
I don't put stock in people who say "it's just like last year(s)" team.
This is a completely different team than prior years.
We said this was a 6-9 win season. And, in a lot of cases, 9 wins doesn't get you a playoff game.
This team EARNED TWO playoff games.
I'm proud of this group of players and coaches as a unit. Some will need to go.
But, this was a special year, even if it ended on a down note, just like 30 other teams' seasons end.
