Going foreword though someone needs to tell Pete we don't have to put away the pass game because the defense is back. It is acceptable to play great defense and offense! It's not necessary to shackle Russ and DK and Lockette because we start playin good defense again. Good defense doesn't have to only go with a ground and pound offense.

Although I'm not going to "totally write it off" no more than I would have written it off had we won the Lombardi, I understand what he's saying. The entire preseason canceled, summer camp extremely limited, no rookie camp, no OTA, the protocols, all had an accumulative effect deserving of a large asterisk. It was an extremely weird season, the only season even comparable being the strike season in the early 80's.
