It hurts, but let's chill

I know it sucked. It hurts to watch. Many of us raged on the game thread. But let's establish some reality checks.

  1. Herbert is a high quality QB. He played poorly today, that's hard to see, but we don't need to trade him like a bunch of you half wits were saying.
  2. Dicker is a top 3 kicker in the NFL. One mental goof for 2 points doesn't make him horrible. Saying anything horribly negative about him makes you stupid.
  3. Our Defense was amazing. They deserve a bunch of love.
  4. Our main problems can be boiled down to: need better pass catchers who are reliable and able to handle contested situations. (Ladd is wonderful). Beef up our interior O-line. We have a bottom 3 interior O-line and it showed against a high quality Texans rushing attack. We may need better offensive play calling. I still don't know if it just looks worse because our players on Offense suck more or less or if Roman really does suck at play calling.
  5. Minter and Harbaugh are great and a huge positive for the team.
