Our offense is Pathetic

We are dangerously close to the kind of season where we're wasting a year of Jason Campbell's prime. We're lucky he wasn't hurt at the end of this awful mess of a game, and the O-Line injuries leave me very concerned about his safety back there. We can't risk J-Cam getting "David Carred"...

Honestly, I didn't expect us to win this game, and anyone who was counting on this team to finish better than 9-7 would be borderline delusional in my book.

With the way the offensive line has been absolutely DESTROYED this year with injuries, chalk it up to more experience for Campbell. To be able to have a successful year without the entire starting right side of your offensive line says a lot about your QB.

David Carr has proven to be a bad quarterback period. A completely healthy, effective offensive line wouldn't have made a difference for him.

Well, 9-7 after a 2-0 start is just .500 ball. I expect us to play a little better than .500 ball in a weak conference with the defense finally playing the way we knew and expected it could.

My point was that injuries have taken their toll and a lot of players who depend on speed are just "off". Betts is playing really slow. I think we all agree Portis and Moss are both "off", and now ARE has come up gimpy with a hammy... you can't win too many football games with Cooley and McCardell.

My reference to David Carr was more related to the constant punishing hits the guy was taking because of a porous O-Line, not that he was some awesome QB who turned into a backup because he didn't win enough.

Why is that? We have just as good of a chance at being a 10-6 team as anybody else in the NFC. It's not that far out of reach.
