That’s your fault and how you choose to respond the events that happened this year. I’m sorry you choose to be a downer

It wasn’t good when the season was on the line and they showed up unprepared.

Ok then many teams choked throughout the season. It’s an epidemic out there.

Yep. People who say preseason ranks don’t matter are fooling no one. It carries over all season

In the NFL, all divisions are basically on equal footing though
