I'd like to blame injuries, but there have been several elements of this team that have frustrated me. That said, I was at 9-2 before the Harvin loss caught up to me, so the injuries clearly have something to do with it.
But as a GM, I made some mistakes that I'll have to figure out how to rectify in the offseason.

I just looked up my last six games in Duluth and realized why our season was painful. We were 6-4 going into Week 11 and then this happened:
Week 11: Led 27-23 in the 4th quarter and gave up a winning punt return TD with 2:53 left.
Week 12: Trailed 16-10 in the 4th, drove down to the 2-yard line and threw an interception on the last play of the game to lose.
Week 13: Got blown out 38-3, but gave up three TDs on drives of less than 40 yards due to turnovers and no drives of more than 65 yards.
Week 14: Lost 17-10 in a boring game.
Week 15: Tied the game with 12 seconds left and then never touched the ball in OT, losing 30-27.
Week 16: Led 21-16, gave up the winning TD with 2 seconds left to lose 22-21.
