3) Below average pass defense?? HUH?? Opponents completing 55% of their passes (3rd in NFL), a 75.1 QB rating against us (7th), 6.35 yards per attempt (5th), only 188 ypg against (6th)... all of this is BELOW average??

4) Talk about "not knowing how to use statistics" to make an argument....
Roethlisberger - 29.4 completion % / 15.1 QB rating vs Skins - 59.4% comp / 80.2 QBR overall
Flacco - 47% comp / 64.4 QBR vs Skins - 58.7% comp / 76.9 QBR overall
Hasselbeck - 50% comp /54.7 QBR vs Skins - 52% comp / 57.8 QBR overall
Bulger - 136 yds passing vs Skins
Anderson - 37.8% comp / 57.9 QBR vs Skins - 50.2% comp /66.5 QBR overall

and for the big ones....

Brees - season low 216yds, 69.6 QB Rating vs Skins - 93.9 QBR overall
and
Warner - season low 192 yds, 53.3% comp, 81.5 QBR vs Skins - 68.4%/97.5 QBR overall

So how does every team pass the ball WORSE against other teams??




Seriously... do not talk about someone not knowing how to read statistics... enough with the attacks, if you disagree, fine, but people don't go attacking others when you make no sense at all yourself...

Way to omit Leftwich, Fitzpatrick, Orlovsky, and Bulger because they don't support your argument. Better yet, thanks for checking to see that your argument is bunk, and then trying to throw out selective stats anyway, and hoping I wouldn't notice.

I thought we defended Warner and Brees pretty darn well three months ago. Our offense also averaged 26.5 points between those games, and at the time, was clearly helping to contribute to our team success.

Thanks though, I needed a good chuckle. Carry on.
