Next offseason we need to re-establish our identity

Hey, this season AIN'T over yet, Bro...

There's plenty of football left to be played to not only establish our identity...

But I want to see our opportunity like the S'hawks did us and have our day in the playoffs...

Defense is gel-ling; did you not see that effort in coverage by Robertson on Ginn? (Who's catch was bullshinski as he was still cradling the ball as he slid out the back of the endzone, but that's done)

D-line is learning to play together and with Byrd jettisoned next season, we're gonna have one helluva secondary...

Hagan, hit it on the head, a couple of new road graders at the guard positions and with Peat making Armstead first round trade bait - lookthef*ckout...

But this season ain't over; not by a long shot...

And it starts with SEAN PAYTON. Watching this play out the last 3 + seasons has to makes some wonder where the decision making and quality of leadership has gone. Special teams isn't just bad, it's embarrassing. You call out Lutz and Murphy but why not call out Coach McMahon? Teams are looking at our protection and attacking (see Denver). ST has been the direct result of 3 losses so far (NY, DEN, CAR) & possible contributor with OAK and ATL. It's a clown show.

Far too much complacency and mediocrity on this team.

Those 3 losses the special teams have been awful and whilst I agree that the NY and Carolina game came down to those, the Denver game we turned the ball over 4 times, 3 of those in our own half.

Carolina game we turned the ball over twice but were still in a position to come back until the kick was blocked.

Who would have thought at the start of the season that our D would be the most consistent unit over the last 5 weeks, even the offense is killing us recently.
