On to the Cowboys

3 of 8 possessions resulting in a score against a team that lesser offenses torched.

The defense looked like a big 10 unit - can shut down a Kent State but unable to compete with any SEC team.

For me, this game gave no indication that any ship was righted. We have played 3 teams projected to have losing records this season and about to play a 4th. Lose to the Cowgirls and it's likely over. 1-4 (Bucs are not as bad as Atlanta made them look) means that the 4th division of the Latvian soccer leagues will be more compelling.

What happened to Louisiana Football?

What happened to Louisiana Football?

When have projections ever come true?
The eagles were supposed to go undefeated with their dream team - didn't happen
The broncos were projected to outscore Seattle in the Superbowl - didn't happen

Just remember that football is any given Sunday

Our offense had kind of an off day, but did enough to win the game, credit the D for not allowing a TD all game

Here's an example - 2011 we beat the colts without manning 62-7, the following week we lose to the rams 28-14
We still won the NFC south that year and had probably the best offense in NFL history

The offense has put up decent numbers for 2 weeks straight, they had kind of an off day yesterday but that's normal, it will get sorted.

TODAYS DEFENSES ISNT DESIGN TO WIN GAMES! if you dont believe me ask the denver fans. yesterday seattle (no. 1defense) held denver at bay for pretty much the entire game however it came down to a 59sec drive and a two score situation for denver to go into ot. now what does that has to do with anything you asked?, well let me tell you if denver scores prior till that situation they wouldnt have to pull out a miracle to even go into ot. their defense played too good for them to have to score with 59 sec. left. now the flip side to my arguement is this. if you have an opportunity to win the game on offense please do so what i mean by that well let's go back to the seattly and denver game. in ot seattle got the ball first with the understanding if we score a t.d. game over period there's no need to put our no.1 defense back out on the field (at home) to have them stop peyton manning and the crew lets end it now and what do seattle do, exactly what i always say win the freaking game on offense move the ball score game over period. now no one is talking about the near miracle peyton almost came up with they're only saying seattle won in ot.

Offense was not stagnant for first 2 weeks of the season, we struggled yesterday slightly but it happens from time to time

Seriously though, most people don't read your posts if you keep putting caps lock and going on rants, just saying...

Me either. I keep seeing people say that our defense improved, but we were playing against a rookie QB AT HOME so yea we had better looked better. I think if Cassel had stayed in we would be 0-3 right now. How many plays did you see where a receiver dropped the ball when our guys had blown coverage. Thank god the guy couldn't throw because if he could at least two of those incomplete passes would be TDs.
