The defense is taking heat from writers and all these people about their performance but honestly....besides that run that Grant had which if they ran that play 100 more times he would not make the end zone....they played well. I think everyone is forgetting that they prepared for Brett and they did an outstanding job on him while he was in and then you put in a kid i am sure they did not look at film for. I don't think they should be overlooked they have come up big all season when they were supposed to.

I agree on the run.

I agree that we didnt prepare for Rodgers. BUT... that underneath soft stuff is hard to watch.

We pressured them into sacks and turnovers and prevented time machine Favre from making a difference at all. Except for the Grant 62 yard TD, we prevented the big play and made stops when we needed to AGAINST A TEAM THAT IS 10-1. Correction, WAS 10-1. :D

Besides, if T.O. doesn't bobble that touchdown it's 44-27.

The defense had a lapse, but more troubling imo is the mindless penalties. If we have the right amount of men on the field and stop jumping offsides to keep drives alive we would've dominated.

The tackling wasn't consistent and there were too many penalties, but the defense also did a lot of things right last night.

Ware was not offsides.

Gotta give AR some credit.

I found it funny that every week AR says to "emulate" their opponents QB in order to prepare the defense.

The way he looked on the field last night moving around it seemed like he did an all right job being Romo and even enjoyed it.
