The south ' s greatest mistake is how they handled reconstruction . They should have rushed to educate and provide economic opportunities to the newly emancipated slaves instead of trying to keep them down and keep them slaves in everything but name . Had they done so they could have quickly built their economy back up and limit the damage instead of losing wave after wave of blacks as they fled the south for their own safety as well as opportunities for themselves and their families . Here is the truth , when you actively create poor people your whole society is poorer for it . <| sep |> Damn it Plague , why is it so attractive ? <| sep |> and sell good <| sep |> Yeah I was wondering about this too after seeing the stat in ESPN after the game about Caldwell ' s Colts team being the only other one to have so many comebacks . I was trying to think about this myself . I have a feeling your onto something . I don ' t think this was 100 % fully planned out as , hey guys let ' s be down in the 4 th quarter and make a comeback . I do think some part of his practices and strategy ends up with us being comfortable in that scenario and , as you said , just letting other teams drown . The other BIG take away from this team is that we still have yet to sting ALL the pieces of our team together . We ' ve run up the score on people , we ' ve stuffed offenses to almost no points . Never all at once , it always seems to be half the cylinders are firing . I ' m hoping that we get the mojo going and all cylinders firing right as we hit the playoffs . I think we could actually beat ANY team in the NFL if that happened .
