I feel as good as one can after a loss, I suppose. The O is improving every game--and I agree TAFKAS, that drive was kick-ass. That drive said, we are in this game, we can play ball. Moved the chains, overcame some tough penalties (would have killed the drive last year), and got the TD.

The D is more of an issue, though I trust Williams and Co to get a handle on things. Really, they played very well, against one of, if not the, best run teams in the NFL. BUt the big plays hurt--that's just not acceptable on this D. Missed tackles will kill ya--on the second long run, they knew where the play was going, and got beat. Also, we've got to put up some more points--19 ain't enough. We could really use some TOs!!! That helps get you some cheap points, and we just haven't had it.

I also feel better--though it really doesn't make that much difference--that all the other undefeateds, except Indy, lost.

But I am anxious to see how we react going into another tough joint next week. HOw will we bounce back? THat's a big deal for a team.
