We live in a world where the media has to generate endless content and thus they are forced to develop opinions based on very limited data. Posters too, of course. It's tough to avoid that but there is no reason imo to give a meaningful judgement on this team at this point.
The themes for this season:
Which of the young players, especially Fields, improves by the end of the season?
Does the team play disciplined, assignment-oriented and tough football consistently?
Does the offense have a identity and some consistency by the end of the season?
Those are my questions. Wed can comment on each, or whatever else, each week, but this season isn't about the beginning. It's about the journey to the end, and where the franchise is at that point. I will reserve and summative judgement until then.
