10 Things wrong with our defense.

Shawn Rogers... Waste.. I'm at work right now and I could go on for a long time. But before I go, I would like to throw Greg W. under the bus too. Our D suxs, no improvement what so ever.

It all starts up front. If that doesn't improve you'll see our LB's and DB's exploited again and again.

Exactly!
Our front 4 has ONE-z's on the score card every week.
Cam, Franklin, Rogers, Ellis, Smith ... how do you play a whole game and only have 1 tackle?
and maybe an assist? and NO sacks? and give a backup RB +100?
We'll be all right. I keep telling myself that. You think if I keep saying it it will suddenly become true?

Bottom line for me is, if the offense sputters our D isn't going to win the game for us. Even though we held them to 6 points the second half, we couldn't get them off the field when we needed to.

10 things wrong with our defense......Rogers, Aubrayo, Ellis, Smith, Harper, Jenkins and Porter. I could only come up with seven. Now If they played harder I'd take them off my list.

Havent given up papz, just saying if we play the way we are playing NOW, we will be lucky to get to the second round. This defense needs to start playing consistently, and as a unit. They seem to play great one minute, and then are confused the next.

I don't think it's Greg Williams fault. I mean, he did coach the winning SB Saints, right? Do you think he's changed that much from 2009 and now?

He's injured, old and getting older, probably couldn't pass a physical and is currently of no interest to all 32 NFL teams.

He's still do us a lot of good even if on the side lines.

Hey, at least Dennis Allen over at the Broncos gave him a pity workout! He wasn't good enough for their sideline, though.
