Backpass: 2016 is a new year... with some of the same problems as 2015

Backpass - your tactical Tuesday graph and chart-fest - is back! But can someone please dial up a win for me to breakdown?

(Sigh). Another year, another loss for the Colorado Rapids; the fourth such year without an opening day win. In 2015, it was a scoreless draw at Philadelphia. In 2014, it was a 1-1 draw against NYRB. In 2013, it was a 1-0 loss at Dallas. The last time a Colorado Rapids team won on opening day was 2012, when they beat Columbus 1-0. Matt Pickens was the keeper. Scott Palguta was a defender.
