I believe our Defensive unit played better regarding the pass coverage. Moss never really got into a groove and pissed off most of the game. How does Marshall, a Middle LB, get assigned to cover Porter? That is twice in the past couple of games teams have got that match up. Last week in Tampa he was beet down the middle of the field by a WR,(galloway) and this week. What kind of defensive call is that? And again, late in the game we are blitzing when we have gotton absolutely no pressure on the QB all day. And again we give up two or three big plays at the end of the game when we need to control the Raiders and keep them infront of us. But we blitz, and get burned for 30 by moss. Blitz again and get beat by Jordan out of the backfield for 20. Its the same ole story game after game.

Gibbs deserves some blame too. 4th quarter, up by 3, with little over 7 minutes left. Three straight passes? what the hell is that. Portis was averaging alost 5 yards a carry and we come out 3 straight passes, two of them deep down the field. That is horrible. And again, I think we get the ball back, and again throw the ball two of the three downs. We got out coached, first, and out played second.
