Keeping Perspective Through Week 2

Trigger warning: Optimistic post below
It's easy to have tunnel vision on what is happening to only your team and lose perspective early on in the season.
We had some incredible magic week 1 then fell apart week 2 with a ton of strange moments to put it mildly.
But look around the league. The first 2 weeks has been almost unprecedented with what's going on with the comebacks. The Bengals are 0-2, Russell Wilson looks average at best, Is Tua good, Chargers have coaching issues, Jags and Lions have each won a game, Green Bay is up and down, the Giants are undefeated.
We clearly have our issues on offense, mostly timing, but it's not time for overhaul changes. The Saints historically start the season slow and really hit their stride. We have some winnable games coming up.

This is the fourth straight year we started 1-1. We just have some really dumb fans that melt anytime the saints lose.

So essentially a normal start to the saints season?

I know we could always go in circles with the what ifs, BUT "What If" Olave is able to keep his feet under him. Even if the score doesn't change after that and the team eventually loses 20-17 with 2 TDs within 30 seconds of game clock, is the board still in such a panic?
Then again, you're kicking off to TB w/ 2:30 and 1 TO, does TB try to run clock and play safe and the Saints are possibly getting the ball back with around 1:15 left on the clock. With as bad as the first 3 1/2 quarters went, still so many possibilities for this team to have pulled it off and people are looking to just fold up.
