If they see it as hearbreak, they will shrink from the game next week and the season will melt into a series of progressively worse results.

If they get pissed about the sorry state of being 0-3, get furious at the idea of hard work wasted, talent and potential wasted, then this team could rise up and bring their motivation with them. They COULD rip off some wins into October/November.

I think it will be hot/cold. Playing up to teams like Dallas and Philly and down to teams like Houston and KC. The result will be a tightrope walk along .500, sitting about pick 12 in the draft, and watching several talented, needed players depart.
