to be honest

i think our expectations have been ridiculously high since the playoff season. we're not a big team with big budgets like saints or pompey, but we managed to compete.

maybe that's why we feel so deflated - we've been incredibly lucky over the last 4 years and now we've come down to earth with a bump....
