Big rock, many ripples

[Tacklynn]

When a big rock is tossed into a pond, it makes a lot of ripples.

The big rock was the horrendous last 4 minutes of the Seattle game last year. The disarray we see today is the ripples. The play calling duties were changed this year due those last four minutes a year ago. That caused ripples, if not visible at first, then as the season progressed. So then the play calling was switched back. More upheaval; the ripples keep rippling. That double switch caused some personnel and morale issues. More ripples. Those issues affected the QB, and in turn, his performance at a press conference. Ripple, ripple. The ripples spread to the team, to the vibe in the locker room, to the core of the team.

Eventually, the ripples/repercussions die down. But if the rock makes a great big splash, it takes awhile, like maybe the whole following season.

Yet they went 6 and 0 to start the season

I don't buy that theory

So it was the butterfly and all along I was blaming my husband.
