I suppose I was looking for a simple I WAS WRONG BABY FOR DOUBTING YOU LET'S GO! sort of hey look at all the stuff that went right this year.
I wasn't really intending it to be the Texans game confessional.
But it was kind of fun so I let it go.

I think quite a few people as the season went on were saying about the defense, "this isn't good enough to win in the playoffs", but of course they turned the corner and everything is different now. Same with Andy and time management gaffes, poor challenges, etc. The team getting better as the season goes on makes everything easier. Doesn't mean it wasn't true at the time.
That is far different than the CP insta-freakouts when things aren't immediately going great like Frank Clark Sucks, HB sucks, Hardman sucks, Jones is sitting out as a business decision, Veach blew both drafts, a call went against us so the game must be rigged, Spagnuolo was a bad hire, many pronouncements of "game over" sunday, etc
The former is sober realism based on the facts up to that point, the latter is internet dip-****ery
