I saw a couple in the 1st half, but virtually none in the 2nd.

I'll probably re-watch it tonight but I don't think he was as bad as everyone has said.

But it seems like that mainly because people don't fully understand how an O-line works.

I don't know if that is true. I mean under that logic you could say the same thing about Amristead. I think the idea is to bring guys along at a certain speed that allows the to be successful. You don't want a guy to lose confidence. Armistead took over later in the season and that was because chuck was bad bad, i mean way worse than strief. So I just am not sure it is a reflection of his skillset. Armistead sturggled in his initial start

I think he called Zona!

Our defense is finally getting healthy. I'm more confident they'll figure things out and start holding teams around 20pts.

My biggest concern remains the O line.

Brees could have easily lost 3 INTs last night due to pressure.

True, but I think we also dropped 2 picks last night.

And 2 of Dallas' drops wouldn't even have been possible if not for defensive holding.

The offense is my worry. And I hear people saying we're two years away. If we had a solid offense we could get it done this year. We won't have a schedule like this in a while. And a great defense isn't guaranteed 13 wins against the NFC North and AFC East divisions in 2017.

The oline is probably gonna be inconsistent from week to week so the way to offset that is weeding out the bad seeds on offense. With Cooks drawing top coverage, Colston's mistakes we cannot afford. We should not live and die with Colston. Snead needs to start getting looks in the redzone so our drives do not stall.

I'm concerned about a lot of things especially looking at an OT win at home vs a team minus its best player, QB, stud MLB and a few others

O-line really got pushed back all night and was I surprised Brees didn't go down more or have 3-4 picks

What the hell was with the defensive penalties? I'm not a Browner fan. Don't if we more later, but at one point they said we had 6 def penalties for first downs

Yeah but this same team of Cowboys blew open to a 21 point lead on Atlanta and lost. They ran all over the Falcons - supposedly the hyped cinderella team. Romo or not, Dallas has a big o-line and big d-line. Falcons didn't blow them out "Romo-less" nor did we.

Penalties - we have a LOT of rookies starting. Browner - he came from the Pats knowing 1) he makes 1 or 2 key plays per game, and 2) he commits about 2 key penalties per game.
