I understand what your saying, I wouldn't say the gameplan in the first half is entirely not working though, the D has just been put in awful situations by the offense.

Seattle game 7 first half points by the D
Denver - 10 first half points after brees threw 2 interceptions on the first two drives

As a supposed "Number 1 offense" they should be helping not hurting our D.

In fact over the last 5 games the defense has allowed 23.6 points per game and thats including all the turnovers turned into points and the blocked FG's which are not the defenses fault.
