"When you're at the bottom, the only way you can go is up!"

Or, you can dig the hole deeper, thus going down!

I don't think improvement is inevitable, I think we can do a little worse. I see no gar-en-tee from the NFL stating we'll do better. This ain't Billy Bob's used Special Teams lot, "Folks, ya'll come down to BB's and git yorself the best used ST money can buy! We got yer tacklin, we got yor kick returnin, we got yor puntin. You got my personal guarantee on that, or my name ain't Billy Bob Johnson!"

Instead we're going up against people who know we are weak, and who will deliberately seek to expose our weaknesses. All good generals seek to expose their enemy's weaknesses. All we've done is and new factors, some unproven factors, to the mix.

No sir, no inevitablility to improvement at all.


That being said, I think we will improve because I think Martz is a smart enough and good enough coach to make it happen. :-)
