We were in this game for much of it. But the team gave up. They had chances but just gave up.
And at the Vikings presser, Favre says, "I told the guys, were still in it, so keep fighting".
And thats what a proven playmaking vet can add to your team. The right mindset, a never say die approach. Proven playmakers can make all the difference. No, I dont want Favre, I never did. But when he speaks and when he tries to convince players that they are still in it, the players listen. Dont hijack this and make it about Favre.
Its another way that the FO fails us. The rely too heavily on the draft, wont pull a big trade for a star (outside of Stroud), and wont sign a star in FA.
Well, when your team is so young, when none of them are proven winners, you dont know how to win.
TO? You all know that TO wont be a verbal leader that we need. He cant be because of his reputation throughout the league. He can help. But he cant do enough.
Our HC? Yeah, It would be nice to have one that has won a SB before so that the team an truly believe in him. Instead we have a guy with a losing record. And we probably will replace him with some coordinator who has never won anything as a HC either... so no you wont get a win from a guy like that, he cant convince the players to fight and get a win.
When this team adds a few proven playmakers who know how to win, we will win games like this. I know there was a slew of other reasons, but that stuff will happen. And good teams, with playmakers, will still squeak out a win.
