It really is a shocking turn of developments, for this collection of players.  I agree with both of the statements clipped from your OP above.  This team has very little heart.  It also expends very little of the effort needed to succeed at the high major collegiate level.  That's a bad combo.

My father remarked last night that in the 41 years he's had season tickets, this is the worst team he's ever seen JB field.  Which is a travesty, given what JB had to say about the squad in the preseason.

To your last sentence quoted above--I don't think it CAN be fixed.  There is something systemically wrong with this group of players.  We've never had a breakdown like this--ever.  Don't get me wrong, we've had some teams that have been less talented than others, but we've never had a group as soft as this group, or so willing to fold like a pup tent at the first sign of adversity.  We've gotten absolutely rolled by some mediocre teams, and these guys haven't shown a lick of improvement since the first game.

It's going to be a long winter.
