This is very true on all accounts. I'm convinced the coaching is good enough to beat lessor and marginal teams, and coaching and talent is there to beat good teams on occasion. However, the talent just isn't there to beat exceptionally talented and well coached teams. We're just not there. I sure hope these guys invest heavily in the OL next year in the draft and FA.
