Although I still think there's other issues at play here(playcalling, scheming, personnel, etc. ) I definitely agree with this. It's a completely different ballgame when you are a young team on the rise after being a dumpster fire for 17 years, everything is all roses and gravy and I'm sure the atmosphere felt very fun for the players. But now after too many disappointments and the years going by with early exits in the playoffs, the pressure begins to mount. Expectations rise...it does feel like this is a team that really struggles with pressure and expectations. It just doesn't look like they play with a real confidence anymore even though they still say all the right things in press conferences.
