Maybe it's better these issues happen in the regular season so that they can be addressed and fixed before the post season........this same thing happened to the defense a few years ago in the playoffs against the rams......by then it was too late.......season over
This isn't a new issue. This wasn't a wake up call or a silver lining game.
When our offense can't score or sustain drives to keep TOP lopsided, and our defense isn't able to play with a lead or get turnovers, they are going to wear down fast and it's gonna get ugly.
See SF and AZ games this year.
I've said it before. We are Mike Tyson...if we can't knock you out early and you can get us into the 5th round, we are dead in the water. Seattle game was an anomaly, likely because both teams defenses were already on fumes from playing 3 games in 12 days.
