The fact that they collapsed when it mattered to me is a further indictment of the team and coaches, not a reason to give them a pass.

This is where I keep shaking my head.
Where did I give anyone a pass? You made a pretty salacious comparison for effect, which is fine but not really the best indicator of the year over year product.
But no they didn't make a step forward at all, I think we can all agree on that.
All I've ever suggested is looking into why instead of assuming it's one thing only.
