No kidding. The team has been more entertaining and competitive in recent years. We're still getting out coached at critical times.
That's because Walters has upgraded the talent in a major way. Sadly it appears we don't know how to properly use that talent.
I suppose I could challenge why by season 6 we haven't found a # 2 QB that can pass? I like Streveler and how we used him when Nichols was healthy but he's not there yet.
We've had so many opportunities to develop Streveler but never did. We just chucked him into the fire when we had no choice. That is extremely poor handling of a #2 QB. We don't develop QBs, we destroy them.
