That 2001 season was painful to watch. I'm suprised we won even 3 games. We got better, but we were never a threat. I don't think teams feared us whatsoever.
Whoever follows baseball has to know that the favorites are the Cardinals and Yankees. But the sleeper teams this year are the Atlanta Braves and the Minnesota Twins. Everyone else who makes it is good team but those four teams are the best.
Here is the reality. A 22-0 loss is a football score not a baseball score. Any team giving up 22 runs has to really ask themselves what the TRUE story is in the clubhouse, even if it is the New York Yankees.

Although it is good to be optimistic, I think it's good to be realistic in this situation. Maybe our overall offensive could be better, but our Offensive Line needs improvement.
Giving Rob Johnson another chance is ludicrus. That would be way to much for the die-hard fans. It would also show that Tom Donahoe isn't learning the GM job for the Buffalo Bills. If they needed someone right away, Neil O'Donell might be the guy.
I thought 7-9, and I beginning to think that's what it's going to be. Face it folks, our OL has been a problem for a number of years now. I remember Flutie making our OL look good. But realistically, our OL hasn't been solid for 9 years.
