Pretty simple

I hate losing. I really hate it. Fact is that our luck was going to run out eventually. We can't play from behind every game and win.

I'm not panicking. I just hope the entire team is ready to roll next week.

Why the hell is everyone turning on each other in here? We lost. We're 4-2. The season isn't even close to over. WTF guys? Chill out. Damn.

If you rush 6 and don't get to the QB, ALL 32 starting QB's will destroy you, and probably 20 or so backups will too.

Our front 4 may be the biggest problem we have on defense, including Linebackers.

How do you go about blitzing 6 and 5 people block them all? Absolutely mind boggling.

Wonder the same thing. Another issue I have- why can't we run the ball. Is it the play calling, type of plays, run scheme? What is it?

Is anyone else as sick as I am of hearing EVERY pre-game show talk about all the exotic blitzes GW will draw up to confuse rookie/inexperienced QBs?

Maybe he should draw up some plain old simple "beat-the-SOB-in-front-of-you" blitzes and see how that works

Josh Freeman is far from a rookie or inexperienced quarterback...

And without all these exotic blitzs, no way G.W. and the defense will get any pressure.

We have a hard enough time getting pressure with said blitzs

We have 4 above average starting RBs on our team. Maybe 5 above average starting WRs, and we basically only throw to Sproles and Graham. The rest of these guys are pretty much invisible most of the game. We might be at the point where we have too much talent on O. Maybe we should trade some of these guys who have value and get some above average defensive lineman and linebackers.
