Our rush defence ranking has improved greatly against 2 strong rushing teams. If only they had shown up against the Jets we would be sitting at 9-1. Oh well, keep it up Who Dats!

Not bad, but we need to teach our secondary how to be receivers. They ain't as sharp as the 2009 gang. Those men had hands and cunning. Harper remembers how if he can just stay healthy.

Get well quick Jabari!!!

Unfortunately, Jabari is likely out for the year. I am a fan and believer of Corey White though. I think he can step up and be a productive player in Greer's absence.

Harper? When did ol' brick-hands ever catch balls?
I love his ability to hit like a truck but he has no hands.

The 2009 gang was the Darren Sharper show, he had no less than twice anyone elses INTs with 9. We ave 1.3 INTs /game. So far we are averaging 1 INT/game this year. With Lewis having 3.

If in the hands INTs wouldn't keep getting dropped we would easily be on pace with 2009.

The difference I see is that in 2009 we our d-backs didnt seem surprised when the ball touched them.. This season it looks like a hot potato.

All about points conceded and getting the ball back to the O
Praise from me: 10/10

I suspect when our offense gets to the point of efficiency(getting close but still making too many mistakes) that I'm used to expecting from it, that the defense will look even better.
