What I think I think...

I'm not holding out for post-season play this year, dont think its in the cards. So for me? Its all about JJM development, beating GB and hoping to pull out some wins here or there overall till new years. 

The players arent (cant) think like that and shouldn't..

But thats not my point...

My point is (finally) that I think this weeks game vs Bears is really important in terms of keeping that locker room engaged..Lots of vets in there who are used to winning and this season has got to be taxing. 

Jefferson was just the brightest symptom bubbling to the surface publicly.

I also heard Jefferson was sick last Sunday. Had a fever and flu so I'm guessing it wasn't just losing that was affecting his body language out there.

But yes, we need JJ McCarthy to keep playing and getting reps. Maye, Caleb, and Nix all started rough or had rough stretches last year. Now they all have 20-40 starts under their belts. McCarthy has 4 starts.

Let's hope he ends up with 12 at the end this season and see if he can start showing some consistency. The ceiling is high, we've seen it twice. Now it's just raising the floor and playing consistently well.
