Those who wondered if this D was for real: Any questions?

They are flat out stunning.

the defense would be good if they can finish out a game

except for the last drives of the game for the opposing offenses

 

[Smith22]

Bad finish, but put this one on the offense and our sorry arse kicker. Pretty solid defense all game long.

This Defense seems to play just fine for 3quarters and 12 minutes of football games. I don't know what the reason is behind all of these late collapses but for christ sake it's driving me insane.

They play 58 minutes of football, not 60.

 

[Smith22]

They play 58 minutes of football, not 60.

So how long did the offense play? 10 minutes of 60?

Amazing defense we have. 1 total sack. Wow!

PJCowboys - you must not have watched the game - We had only 1 sack, but we had 3 t/o's and 2 intentional groundings (which count as sacks basically). Hasselbeck was running for his life all day - absent a few nifty moves, we woulda had 5 sacks.

Yes, our defense is awesome....for 3 and 7/8 qtr's.

I'm not putting this on the defense unless we went to a prevent defense which only prevents us from a win.

 

[PJCOWBOYS]

Ya, you're right. I didn't watch the game. Ok, we didn't have 1 sack. We had 35 sacks. Feel better?

that pass interference on Glenn when it was first and 20 was the kind of mental errors were seeing from Vets on this Team.

Rivera, false starts
Glenn, Pass Interference
Al Johnson, holding..and botched snap again.. (not sure who is to blame on those)
Bledsoe, forcing passes into double coverage on a wet field, botched snaps
Witten, dropped a ball that hit him right in the hands
Keyshawn, dropped a ball that hit him right in the hands
Glenn, dropped a ball that hit him right in the hands
Cortez, kicking the ball out of bounds, missed a chip shot

I am just talking about this game in particular, our veterans did not seem to step up and play like the elite team we can be...mainly our guys on offense, our defense played very well, and I thin if that Pass Interference penalty didnt happen, this game would of been won.

PJ - nice response...except that it made no sense

I didn't say we officially had more than 1 sack - You implied our defense sucked and I said u were out of your mind - We had good pressure again and this is clearly not the defenses fault. They held 3 consecutive #1 offenses to 3, 13, and 13 points -- shut it
