We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.

If I knew the secret of how to prevent professional soccer players from blowing ~8 open scoring opportunities in 90 minutes I wouldn't be giving it away for free.
Maybe when they sign another goal-scoring winger? Its been a few years since having both Grella and Sam able to reliably put the ball in the net.
Let's not be hyperbolic.
We had 3-4 good to very good chances (Royer's obviously being the best) in a 90 minute game against a team that was bunkering and countering. There was a TON of aimless possession, lackadaisical behavior in the final third and just lack of quality on the finishing end. A draw may have been a fair result yesterday. We love to take very low quality shots and then after the game scream about how we had double digit shots on goal. 75-80% of those shots aren't a threat to anyone. That's also a pretty big problem.
I have no idea why more teams don't park the bus against us. It's a strategy Marsch has been unable to solve. I also feel like I've seen this exact game 20 times in the past 3+ years.
"3-4 good to very good chances" is great. Not sure what you are complaining about. The team played some decent ball, and was unlucky to not come away with the victory (if you want to see pointless possession check out NYCFC against Portland this past weekend) The xG was 2.45 to 1.19. We limited Chicago to a crazy golazo and a PK due to Long's only mistake of the day. That's it.
Somebody on twitter posted the following. Our record in all competitions is 6W; 2D; 5L. We have 22 GF and 11GA. All five losses were by one goal. We are fine and have been a bit unlucky so far. This is a great team that nobody wants to face.

Sure, at least in the regular season.

We almost defeated TFC last year, which is arguably the best team in MLS history. We went to the semis of CCL and should have beaten Chivas. This team is legit, guys. I know we've had some hiccups so far, but we are a good team.
Sorry can't believe we are to good for any trophy.
But if Marsch fails to bring one home this year he is 0-8 over the past 2 years, 1-12 over the past 3 years. He has to go if he fails.
The Supporters Shield in 2018 is as valuable as the Atlantic Cup.
Didn't realize the Atlantic Cup got us into champions league.

I don't disagree. I think that we're good, that we've been unlucky so far, that we will comfortably make the playoffs, and that we will struggle again in big games in the cup and the playoffs when it comes to that.

This year's Supporter Shield wouldn't guarantee us an entry into next year's CCL.

But our recent performances in knockout games and in the playoffs were good. We have a +11 goal differential in all competitions in 2018. That's really solid. All five losses have been only by 1 goal. I know our history means we should be pessimistic, but I don't see any reason why we should be for this group. Plus, we actually solved the biggest weakness of the past two seasons since Miazga left: CB. I feel really good. If BWP stays healthy, we'll make waves.
