Yeah the defense didn't really look very good in the first half. The two turnovers were a huge help, but one of them was a butt fumble by the center.

The second half was a completely different story. The pressure suddenly showed up for the first time all season, and it looked like our DB's were playing up closer. Those throws in the middle of the field where no defenders could even be seen against the Eagles, I was seeing a lot of bodies around the ball this time.

That's what's been so frustrating to watch. It always looks like they're trying to trick people out there, and they end up fooling themselves instead. It seemed like coming off of a butt kicking finally convinced this staff to just play a little more straight up and make the quarterback have to actually look downfield.

Breaux, the last two games, has learned to turn his head. He aggravated the crap out of me the first few weeks when all he seemed to do was just lock on to the WR and not make any sort of play on the ball. That's not what people mean when they say lock down corner.

It makes all the difference in the world when you actually know where the ball is, and he's playing very well now.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
