context of this year?
I mean, you linked a depth chart post from donnerstag in May 2019. Ok, well here's one from him this May as well.

You linked a random thread talking about Andrada vs McChesney June 2019. Here's one talking about the best players on this year's team.

And one about returning experience

Your posts show nothing. Too small of a sample size to claim there was soooooo much more talk in previous years and not this year. For every post you link, I guarantee I can find one from this May-present as well.
It's not THAT bad. Just saying don't blame it on everyone being down on the team. It's July and the season has question marks. It's as simple as that. Keep your chin up and hey, I haven't seen you on any of those threads I'm finding, so maybe you gotta participate more and then you'll see the football talk! 🙂
