Falcons-Colts lessons learned: They're mostly unpleasant

Our writers mull the loss, and they're not happy about it.

Caleb Rutherford

It's time we all took a step back and reexamined everything.

The team has gone from a surprise success story to a muck of despair. The bye week fixed nothing. We've lost yet again to a quarterback that is not a starter, and we've lost yet another game we should have won, perhaps easily. Falcons fans, it's time you got rid of your entire set of expectations. Do not expect this team to win another game this year, and remind yourself that while the high lasted for 5 weeks, the truth reminds us that this team is still a long way from being where we want it.
