The patient part of me says it's idiotic to take anything definitive away from a single game, and the first one at that. The reflexive part of me says this team is what it's been until it proves otherwise: The pre-game statements about the importance of coming out strong followed by a surprising lack of energy for much of the first 40 minutes, ineffective special teams, a catastrophic late-game breakdown that turns a sure two points into an OT loss...it was kind of like watching all of last season wrapped neatly into a single game.

Both these things can be true. It's only one game, but I expected better in the home opener.
