Work smarter, not harder. That is a very simple business principle.
If you don't have your shit together, in one place or another, you are going to crack and then have an imbalance.
The psychological health of this team is at a very delicate stage.
A lot of it is starting to wear on Fat Mike. The guy cast out Boy Wonder and his offense looks like a sad shell.
I am not hysterical about things, but I can tell you this.
I think both McCarthy and Schottenheimer's kid are over their heads.
I don't think either is capable of doing the innovative things the successful offenses in this league are doing.
The admission, right now, at this point of the season, that this is a "defensive team" is not a good optic.
It shows that the design was flawed from the beginning.
They "saved up" for this game.
And they were utterly embarrassed. I don't know how you right that other than being very aggressive.
