You just hope the motivation/fire is there come playoff time, but you gotta wonder how much the players believe in what they're doing at this point.
Personally, I don't think we have a realistic shot at anything as long as Manu is on the team.

We don't come back. A loss like that is killer to a franchise. Just look at the Cowboys after losing to San Francisco in the NFC Championship back in 1982. It never came back around after that....

Manu threw the Finals in spectacular fashion. He will never redeem himself for that failure. And a balding, 36-year old TOSB is not going to change for the better. He ripped the heart out of our team and there is no reversing the effects of that collapse...
