[QUOTE="ktal, post: 1417432, member: 745969"] Totally agree. Man, he's been dreading this game, hasn't he? This win has got to mean more to him that anyone else not on the team. This would have been a hard loss for the program, I think. Look at how much negativity is evident on this board even after beating Vegas by...16 or 17 points? The bitter has gone on so long, the taste lingers, I get that. But Lovie took a Rex Grossman football team to the SuperBowl. I mean, that doesn't happen if you're not a great coach, period. Uh, so in your mind, winning the games Vegas says you should is one step forward, but losing to teams you're supposed to is two steps back?! That's unhealthy thinking right there. I don't agree that his job was on the line, because Josh is smarter than that. But the media narrative would have become a much heavier lift. And jebus are some fans unwilling to see the evidence of progress. If it were a snake it woulda bit them by now. [/QUOTE]
