If he doesn't have that stretch in the back of his mind, does he still approach that second half as gunshy after that deflected interception? I mean he damn sure didn't vs. the 49ers in the Super Bowl.
Residual doubt re-surfaced and it scared him out of his game. But like I said in the other thread, they can now shuck off the burden of legacy. The 'dynasty' shit is done. They're not the Patriots and they're not gonna be. But they could still pull off a 49ers kind of run if they redouble their focus and don't go into next season tripping over their own feet.

I hated the dynasty talk bullshit when it started. That shit is beyond impossible.
Stop trying to duplicate another team or QB. Just go out and play your game.
