I don't know if it falls under the umbrella of 'heart', but I tend to think the team felt a sense of entitlement rather than a sense of urgency. They played like a team who thought they could waltz into the playoffs on reputation rather than performance, and I think it cost us in 3 of our 4 losses. Maybe all 4. Go into the season with the attitude of an underdog with something to prove rather than a fat and happy team sure they'll make the playoffs and I think we're 3-2 or 4-1 right now.
'course, whatever the case, we are what we are and that's a 1-4 squad that has to go 9-2 from now on to even sniff a shot at the postseason.
