It was this time last year the Atlanta Falcons got themselves together and stopped losing football games.
The 2018 team, also a passive assembly of paltry play sitting at 1-4, took down the lowly Tampa Bay Buccaneers to get only their second win of the year, and won two other games to get the record to 4-4 and convince all of us for some unknown reason a turnaround was possible.
How silly we were!
The team, naturally, cascaded after that with a five-game losing streak that wiped clean most of the offensive and defensive coaching staffs and STs coach Keith Armstrong.
