Yes , it was another frustration loss to a winning record team which we are 1-3. But you can’t spot good teams 14 points.

Much to our credit we continue to fight contending all the way to the end. And I don’t think there will be any quit continuing to play hard contending for the division.

This team despite the talent in some areas simply isn’t as good as the hype. The better teams shut down our running game and gash us with their running game. Basic fundamental football.

You are correct, but the play calling on the cutch drive was just insanity. I understand the 2nd and 2 run call, but not throwing on 3rd down and throwing to Cabo Ewok on 4th was just asinine.

The good news is we are still in 1st place . And we have a losing team up next in Detroit.

And we didn’t suffer any major injuries. I look for us to fight hard and bounce back Sunday.

My expectation of 3-2 in November is still in play with a 7-5 record heading into December.

And I expect we’ll need to sweep Egirls to win division.

Hogwash. This team could easily be a Super Bowl contender with better coaching.

And I don't give then credit for "playing hard." They're pro athletes. How about coming out strong instead of flat for once?

It is what it is. We have been high on Moore’s play calling overall . Execution is always part of the equation.

I mean what can we do when our staff puts the players in horrible positions?

You handed Minnesota the ball at the 50 by going for quite possibly the worst fg in football and basketball history

We'll bounce back mainly because Stafford won't play and the homers will think we're SB bound again. Then we'll lose to the Pats. Getting ready for that 8-8 record.

You obviously have bought into the hype. We certainly haven’t looked like a SB contender. Except lower tier teams.

And I’d agree we need to start faster . We don't make the plays or sustain drives. I assume our opponents have something to do with it as well.

But we do seem to respond always fighting to the end.

I really think based on our schedule we can finish 9-7 and if we sweep Egirls will be enough to win division.

Until you can figure out how to improve this garbage defense. I dont want to hear anything about the offense
Yea we don’t seem to have an answer stopping the running game. We continue to get gashed.

And offensively against better defenses struggle with our running game.

You're right. Couldn't possibly have anything to do with having the worst coaching staff in the NFL, could it?
I seriously don’t believe it’s the worst . Probably more average to below average. But coaching isn’t a priority of this ownership.
