What I took from your comments was that you were suggesting that the idea that our CBs have shown improvement (over the last 2 games) meant very little due to the quality of opposition.
If one is going to take that view then IMO it's fair to question how meaningful 11 out of the 12 INTs and 10 out of the 11 SCKs are that your D has recorded. Since most of them have come from QBs with little to no experience.
After all, while your defense pressured Manning into a subpar game, you still only recorded a single INT and a single SCK against the Giants.
Are you then saying that your game against the Giants is the only game to use as a measuring stick?
I guess I just don't really understand your comments.
(and yeah maybe I'm slow)
For that matter our 3 losses came against ATL, Indy and SD. Three teams who are potentially going to be in the playoffs. While all but one of your wins have been against crappy teams. Does that make your wins less or our losses more meaningful to the overall quality of the 2 teams?
I'm just curious...
