That is EXACTLY what I have been thinking. It might help/improve Payton's play calling. Not that it was bad before, but I think it can go both ways. Thank god the next two teams we play have not won a game. Then again...It's a trap... Lol, I think we blow the Dolt's, and the Lamb's out personally.

You say that but... Had we not of turned the ball over any, it would of been a win for us. Turnovers is what lost us the game last week, and will more than likely cost us the game every week if we turn the ball over that many times. I don't blame our defense for last game, our offense was more than capable of outperforming what they did last week.

Probably will mandate a more complete gameplan from the start. It will allow Coach Payton to make better adjustments on the fly in play calling. Will hurt if the game is close and in the 2 minute offense. Drew should have more control of the playcalling this week in those situations.

The defense isn't anything special we all agree, they likely won't improve much but they did more than enough to win that game. Asking them to get 4 additional stops or generate a turnover on a regualr basis is not going to happen and that's the reality right now. I say the majority of the focus goes to the offense. Clean up the turnovers and the D will hold.
