THURSDAY NIGHT IS ON THE DEFENSE.
QB issues and dropped balls and injuries aside, If we allow Dallas to look anything like the Bills Offense did early in the game, It's going to be beyond embarrassing in the Dome. The Defense had better dial up something RADICAL.

Last Thursday's game was on the offense and special teams. I'm not concerned with the defense. It's the other two phases that need to step up and do their part this week. |

Re: THURSDAY NIGHT IS ON THE DEFENSE.
So we have to win without scoring points? Its a team sport and our formula to win requires great defense and ok offense. If the offense is worse than ok, thats not on the defense.

Re: THURSDAY NIGHT IS ON THE DEFENSE.
We're getting both Kamara and Ingram back this week. That'll be a huge upgrade. Add in the fact that Ramczyk is back practicing the offense is looking quite a bit more functional. Without a functional offense the best defense in the league has little chance against a decent opponent, don't you think?

DEFENSE BETTER DIAL IN SOMETHING RADICAL. |
