So is the season still over from some...

People are dreaming. We do NOT have the defense to make the playoffs! The two games we've won were over lousy teams and we BARELY won. Three of the four teams we've lost to are terrible and the other is only average.

I think the issue with the defense is that its expected to get better. Every report I've ever read said it takes a lot of time to master Spags zone defenses. Combine that with the fact we have DB's who have played man for the last 3 years converting to a zone scheme and it takes time, a lot of it.

But yeah, if this defense doesn't improve? No f'ing way we even sniff the playoffs.

The optimist in me says our defense starts to get it over the next several games.
