For years, fans have blamed the Blues’ early struggles on “slow starts.” But after four seasons of tracking early results and final stats, the truth is clear: the Blues aren’t slow starters. They’re inconsistent, streaky, and fundamentally misbuilt.
The current 6–9–6 start this season is just the latest chapter. Coaching changes—from Berube to Bannister to Montgomery—haven’t fixed the team’s core issues. The problem is bigger than systems; it’s the roster and the way the team plays from day one.
