failure to handle the game on Sunday will have lasting impact on the balance of the season.
sure they could drop yet another game and find a way back into the competition to find the post season, but truly the game Sunday marks the half way point
being .500 only assure a "reset" and some measure of balance to their efforts.
coming out of first game in November with a loss would more likely assure a tumble that would be hard to control.
weary fans, myself included, will have reached a point where some kind of change personnel wise on the field has to happen.
dare I say that 4 interceptions in one game should be enough to warrant looking at the signal caller. a repeat performance would justify fan fallout.
this may be game, too, that at the halfway point some justification in changing either the OL or the OL coach is upon us. change for change sake is stupid and OL groupings are not lightly toyed with, but at 3-5? '
perhaps, the coach stays true, even in a loss, and doesn't go to the bullpen until they come home for the Miami match.
and don't leave out the defense. They haven't exactly shut down offenses when we really needed them, too. and they have some penalties that are dizzying.
