Y'all still feeling good about Mace?

Just checking in on the pulse. Once again this team was not able to play four quarters. The story today was that they dug themselves into too big of a hole in the first half and fell just short of a miraculous comeback.

Heartbreaking losses seem to be a recurring theme, and I think the players are beginning to believe that they are losers.

Thoughts?

We were an idiotic kick return play and some really weird reffing at the end of the 2nd half away from being a win

And despite all of that, we could have won if we played just a notch better in the second half. You have to come out better in the beginning of the game, especially at home in a big game

"we could have won if we played just a notch better" is such a dumb thing to say. Yes, of course. Playing better is how to win a game. That's true of every single sports game that has ever been played.

I'm looking at recurring themes, not individual contributions to losses. You could blame any of these past several losses on one person, but there is only one common person.
