Throwing for 400 yards is becoming the norm and IMO that is a direct correlation to the leagues effort to not let QB's get touched. Its pretty crappy to be honest, and the days of aggressive defense is fading away.
My thoughts exactly Mike. As bad as our defense has looked starting out the season I can't help but note that in watching other games this season with a few exceptions, Jags, Bears, Ravens, that other teams defenses are giving up huge plays right and left. I swear their secondary's look like ours out there. It's troubling IMO. With the rules being handed down in the last ten years or so defense is all but being eliminated from the game. I love a good shoot out every once in a while but I would much rather see a competitive game. Call me old school but the Steel Curtain, Doomsday Defense, Orange Crush, Dome Patrol, Purple People Eaters, etc. Give me those games any day over what's being put out there now.
