Face it, our secondary is awful

[GimmeTheBall!]

Any time a dog like that Commanders QB can pass for . . . 340-plus yards against the Boys, you have problems.

Before you shrill voices of secondary apologists pipe up, take heed.

Brett Favre is on the horizon. Imagine what he will do.

And word has gotten around: You don't have to run against the boys. (Our run defense is really good.)

Just go with the short-range passes and avoid getting Newman and Henry in the picture.
Why? Because our secondary coaches won't make the adjustments.

More knee-jerk reactions.

If someone stumbled in here and didn't know our record you would think we were out of the playoffs already.

 

[Eddie]

I don't know ... are we really THAT afraid of Brett Favre?

 

[Doomsday101]

I guess we should just pack it in and give up we suck. Oh my god Brett Farve is coming may as well not even play the game. Please this over reaction stuff is for the birds.

 

[Hoofbite]

If Jason Campbell can go for 340, Favre should get at least 600.......

Just doesn't work that way.

9-1 so suck it.

And I would take the guys in our secondary over about 27 other teams in this league so quit crying.

I guess this couldn't have been posted in the Favre is going to carve us up thread?

Correction: Newman and Reeves are the starters.

Also, our corners played well yesterday.

You might wanna take a look at our safeties and our Nick/Dime defense....

 

[Hoofbite]

He does have 16 TDs......

 

[Eddie]

He does have 16 TDs......

You're right. Let's not show up cause Brett Favre is going to carve us up.

 

[Wood]

First off...Campbell is better than you think...but not as good as Dallas made him look yesterday.


and yes Farve will have a huge day....but lets just hope Romo continues too look like Montana, Marino and Elway rolled into one.

Is Favre going to attempt 54 passes against us? If so, I'll gladly accept 340-plus yards as long as we get multiple interceptions.

The only real problem the secondary had yesterday was not having enough pressure to create poor throws. Campbell averaged 5.52 AYPA. If they have a normal run/pass ratio, that's 188 yards passing.

Calm down my friend, we went into the game wanting to shut down Portis and their running game. We did that.

We decided to make Campbell throw everything underneath and not let him strike us deep. We did that.

He played an exceptional game and took what we gave him and he was really good at it yesterday.

We can't take everything away, it just doesn't work like that. I was one that said all last week that this game would play out like it did. No surprise that the Cowboys/Commanders game was a battle.

If Gurode doesn't cost us 3 possessions, (something he doesn't normally do) it may have been a completely different game from the first drive on.

So relax, and let's get ready for the Jets.

Correction: Newman and Reeves are the starters.

No .... Newman and Henry are our starters ..... Reeves only starts when one of them is injured.

 

[eduncan22]

No .... Newman and H**** are our starters ..... Reeves only starts when one of them is injured.

Does it make it better when you say that?

Reeves is a starter.

He's started every game this season.

He's also a good corner.

 

[zrinkill]

Does it make it better when you say that?

Nope ..... makes it accurate.

Reeves is a starter. He's started every game this season.

Yes ..... Because of injury.

He's also a good corner.

Yes ...... he is a good 3rd Corner.

favre will cavre us up!

I do not know what cavre is ..... hope it is not bad.

Correction: the focus is on the short-range passes.

Yes, T-New was superb. JR is a big question mark but has been burned in the past.
But, again, the focus was on our short-range defense against the pass.
Williams? He and the other non-CBs try hard but there just isn't any defense to speak of just behind the linebackers.

With T-New and Henry back there, we have a solid defense.

closer to the line of scrimmage there is very little defense.

If you can't see that, well, myopia rules.

just a little something about mary joke.
