I'm really amazed at how some are so quick to let the D off the hook, not only in this game but all season long.
When Travis Henry ripped us for 180 all we heard was how bad Brunell was.
I really don't get it.

Yeah, 250 yds to the league's #1 rushing offense. What did you expect? I'm not saying the D is completely absolved from any blame, but we gotta put more than 14 points on the board. That only wins you games when you have a defense like the Bears.
Don't get me wrong, I love Campbell, but our passing game was terrible today. Even though we had some critical dropped passes, it wasn't good. We were not very good on third down conversions either which is normally a passing down. There was no reason we should not have scored more points than we did, IMO. Atlanta's D is nothing to write home about.
My biggest prob with our defense is that we didn't create any turnovers. THAT is not doing the O any favors.
