Surely when you say "the scheme" you mean our offense? Our success is directly related to the success of our offense. Drink all the kool aid you want... it will not change. |

Tim Tebow could have completed the majority of the passes he threw on Sunday. |

Re: Hopefully this will calm people down!!
Spags readied his defense for the screens and running game but forgot RG3 has the capability to pass down the field and do it well and when he did he made it look easy which had me seriously concerned for the season, spags seemed to stick to his guns and only adjusted when we fell far behind.
If we don't come out ready for Cam next week I think we can chaulk up the season as the worst offseason and reg season since katrina. |

The defense was pretty bad, at the bottom in pass defense despite the draft picks and the overpay at the Strong Safety position... |

Re: Hopefully this will calm people down!!
Look, that streak last season had zippo to do with the defense. Our offense was pretty-much flawless at times and we outscored teams most of the time.
Had our offense played up to their abilities last Sunday it would have been a totally different game. And losing Meachum had zero to do with it because he's not blocking on the line. Drew had defenders in his face and the o-line played poorly at best. What I saw Sunday didn't have anything to do with Gregg Williams as his defense was weak at best. If anything, our secondary was having a hangover from last season (looking the same or a little worse) where they looked the same and the run defense looked improved. Again, if anyone is going to point fingers, point them at that o-line that looked sorry and sad last Sunday. Drew throwing that INT didn't help either. PS where is Jabari Greer? Again, he's out and coverage in the secondary is weak. |
