The expectations for Gruden & Co. have been unrealistically high. I've actually wondered if that might have been one reason for the Mack trade. They were a lot better with him, but fans expected they would go deep into the playoffs and maybe Gruden knew they didn't have that team yet. Better to hit the partial 'reset' button, perhaps.

However, Mack is a great player but he's doesn't define the team by himself. I wish him well in his career wherever he's at. We have some very young and hungry players that want to prove themselves. Maybe Chucky sees potential there on the defensive side. We shall see in a week..
