3-1 Ain't So Bad......

[MTK]

We gave up 257 total yards to the Broncos, not great but certainly not a defensive meltdown to get our panties in a bunch over.

Bell made two outstanding runs, let's give the guy a little credit he's a very dangerous back and unfortunately he got us today. That was the first back in 8 games to go over 100 against us.

So before we start biting our nails and questioning if Gregg Williams knows what he's doing, take a deep breath and relax. The D isn't broke.

I do give Bell alot of credit, but on that second TD run, we had a few missed tackles. It just wasn't something any of us are used to seeing with our defense.

Mattyk72 agree with your analysis. My only concern with the D though is that the team is not getting enough of a pash rush. Plummer especially can get rattled if you hit him or sack him. At some point I think GW needs give LaVar a shot, call me misguided, call me Joe-the-Fan, but I cannot help but think that LaVar's athletiscism could make at least one game breaking play on the D if given the chance.

At this point since the D had enough breakdowns as a unit, it worth giving LaVar a chance. In my own opinion I think that LaVar has been humbled and has learned from what has happened to him, I know there have been rumors that he 'free-lances' and does not play within the system. But at the same time I remember #56 taking the ball the distance against Carolina and single handedly changing the Redskin's season. I know I am just a fan, and Joe Gibbs and Greg Williams have probably forgotten more about football then I will ever know, but in my own opinion I think it is worth seeing if he can make a contribution to this team.
