I have wondered this too. I think JL is right about a lot but the tone of the post was a little gloomier than it should. I think essentially the team made a only one real mistake and one sorta mistake amid some very good decisions.

I have slowly realized the value of Pierce. Not that Marshall hasn't done a good job but I'd say that he hasn't been a huge play maker. It always seemed Pierce was in on the big tackles in 04. Marshall seems to have done a decent playing job but the smartness of our unit on the field seems to have suffered. I think the Arch deal was basically an over pay for a guy who WOULD have been a relative upgrade had we been able to use him as intended. Instead he now has to do things he simpyl can't and it makes him look real bad.

Again, with better play from Rogers and Taylor we're talking a huge difference. Like I think we are 4-2 if Taylor and Rogers play like they probably can. I seriously think good play from them is that big a difference.
