One point of consistency...

...in an otherwise inconsistent organization.

This team responds well in the short term when the poop hits the fan.

2014 Bullygate - won 3 in a row
2015 Philbin Axed, Dan Campbell HC - destroyed Tenn and Houston
2016 Half the Oline cut - mega winning streak
2016 Starting QB goes down - win 3 of 4 to make playoffs

2017 Star RB cut, maybe more??? - ??????????????

One could also say we won after our oline coach got caught with hookers and blow, but i think that's pushing it, especially given the rock bottom that followed said win.

Bullygate - we lost to Tampa on MNF if i'm not mistaken...

Was at the game, think that's how I remember it...

The Bucs were also win less at the the time for the record...

And Warren Sapp had his jersey retired that night...

Edit - And Donald Penn caught a TD which gave him 2 on the season when Mike Wallace only had 1 at the time...

When did a 1-year wonder become Barry Sanders?

Hence the phrase "short term".

And yes, ajayi was one of the so called stars of this team, despite his crap performances. No one is saying he's barry sanders.

I may have screwed up on the bullygate timing, but i do recall alot of talking heads that season noting how wed risen above it especially during that win streak.

Anyway you can certainly poke holes in it, but again short team the team seems to step up when the **** goes down.
