Observations from today's dramatic OT win over the FailClowns

I'll tell you another observation, our DB's actually look lost. That's a coaching problem. But they seriously look lost out there. No one seems to know who should be covering who.

True. On more than a few plays I saw them looking at each other clearly confused as to who should be covering who. Couple that with an inconsistent pass rush - one that completely vanishes all too often - and we have a big problem on defense.

And some of it is correctable, you know the being confused. I expect Dave port to help the rush as the year goes on, but the pack of push from our DT's is nothing to get excited about.

I learned this today...
From
@ESPNStatsInfo
: Only 2 quarterbacks have lost despite throwing for 350+ yards, 5 TD and 0 Int in the last 30 years: Eli Manning and Matt Ryan.

Both lost to Drew Brees.

He'd run circles around all of us, but he needs to save those hamstrings for chasing young ones.

I’m an old, out of shape man now.

Don't even go there. You're not that out of shape.

In 3 games played, I haven’t seen one DB track the ball on these long throws. On the PI call, we had 2 guys covering 1 guy, and neither had any idea where the ball was.
