One And Done

When a team’s journey abruptly comes to an end of such a long and rough season, many players are left upset, angered or disappointed as they try to figure out just what went wrong, but end of the road this season makes that failure even more bitter and frustrating because there’s absolutely nothing these players can do to make anything better next season since there is no next season, at least not as a team. The two-year journey for Titans and Eagles ended with their “one-and-done” playoff appearance this year and in that span the Titans finished the regular season 2nd and 4th overall while the Eagles finished 1st and 3rd overall in ’06 and ’07 respectively, with the main and most important difference perhaps being the Eagles Championship in 2006. So while history will remember the Eagles successful, at least for one year, the Titans and Eagles will share in the Patriots misery this year as they digest their failed season.
