I was just reading an article where Haslett and co. were saying our secondary played pretty well for the most part last year. Well, I know we played some weak passing teams last year and I wanted to see how we did against the better passing teams we played.

I think the Colts game might have made us think our secondary was worse than it probably was. So, leaving the Colts game out, here's how it breaks down.

M. Hasselbeck 12/23 137 2 0
S. McNair 22/33 252 2 0
D. McNabb 16/25 259 1 0
B. Johnson 27/46 321 2 2
B. Johnson 20/34 213 2 1
TD=9
INTS=3
Only Brad Johnson had a 300 yard game.


J. Delhomme 15/23 124 0 0
J. Delhomme 12/27 148 0 0
K. Stewart 10/21 152 1 0
K. Kittner 9/29 115 1 1
K. Kittner 8/27 80 0 2
T. Hasselbeck 22/42 231 0 1
J. Palmer 15/26 140 1 0
B. Leftwich 9/17 131 1 2
Q. Carter 27/47 290 1 3
D. Carr 17/36 213 0 2
TD=5
INTS=10

I think when you take everything into consideration that our pass defense didn't play nearly as bad as what it's been made out to be. One thing if our secondary was that bad I think the better QB's we played would have done better. And, if our secondary was that bad, I think some of the other QB's would have done better.

I'd really like to hear some honest opinions on this subject. Anyone???
