I pointed out they keep getting blocked out and can't contain for crap.

Sure enough Jackson's big gains... right at the DE's.

4th and 2... right at Smith. They are pussies.

I can't remember if this is the exact play you are talking about but I remember on one of Jackson's big gains, Smith had contain and which lead to Jackson cutting back inside and there was no LB or S help. I thought containment was fine... there was no inside/gap help.

The year we won the super Bowl go back and look at those games even when we were down against teams we should have won... we found ways to win... example Redskins.

I haven't seen that with this team since the Super Bowl.

Its time for an over haul somewhere if not lets start rebuilding before we ride this pony into the ground.

Yep, Vilma whiffed on a pathetic ankle tackle. It was weak.

Our defense is designed to play with a lead, unfortunately we haven't come out of the blocks well for some reason.

This team can still beat any team in the NFL.

Yeah when they don't read their press clippings and get full of themselves

Sorry Strato! You can't give up +30 and +150 on the ground to an 0-6 Rams team and put this one on the offense. There was enough stinky coming from every area of our play. I'm not surprised at all. We are poor in fundamentals and it will bite us in the ash again before we are done.

Yep and G.W was running the same D....better players perhaps?

I agree. I've felt for quite a while how weird it was that we come out so stagnant on offense. I'd like us to come out more uptempo and do a little more no huddle to kick start the offense.

Oh yes you can...we get some points and all this mute ..sorry man aint buying it..we sucked on O...we didnt score till the 3rd quarter...gave up a pick six...come on..tell me we cant move the ball on the Rams....we looked past them...the D played well enough to win..they got the first points..Im not saying we are great on D...but we had plenty of 3 and outs..and so did our offense..I put this loss on Drew...and the O...all of em..
