we started this season without TWO of our starters, plus Joe and Corn have been intermittent all year, with a revolving door of new guys in the secondary. we all know why the defense is sucking.

ALL our starting offense is playing, and unless Al Saunders' playbook is 700 pages of dumping the ball off to the back or the sideline WR comeback....most of us here know why the offense is sucking.

We started the year down Springs. That's one starter, unless I'm missing someone.

Look, I agree that the injuries have hurt us defensively. But still, even when they have been relatively healthy they have not performed well.

we started this year without Prioleau who played a ton last year on passing downs. i think Salave'a and Griffin played together only once this year, and the new acquistions on defense have turned out to be (expensive) downgrades.

i think we'd all also agree the offensive acquistions have been UPgrades, but we can't confirm it because neither them, or our incumbent playmakers are getting enough of the ball.
