Now What??

I still think the D is the strength of our team. Look at the first 2 weeks if the O scores 20-25 points and keeps the d off the field so much we are 3-0

I agree. Look at the Ravens and Steelers. Even they're giving up points, the Ravens especially (maybe not today). The rules overwhelmingly favor the Offense, so it's unreasonable to ask the Defense to pitch shut outs every week. They gave up 13 points today and another 7 on a very questionable pass interference call. At some point, our Offense has to score points and get a lead on someone.

Our D would play much better if the opposing team was behind for once and had to be one-dimensional in order to pass their way back into the game. It's like when Collins came in a few years ago and started moving the Offense up and down the field. The O line blocked better, the Receivers played better, the RBs ran better and the Defense played better. And yes, I'm advocating a change at the QB position. Campbell's stats are fine, but he is paid to put points on the board and win games. Time for a change.

Last year the Ravens and Titans were pretty much winning games for their teams, and they had very little offense (now the Ravens are pretty much a complete team). Last week, the Giants D kept their offense in the game, and their defense has scored points. With as much money as the team has spent on the defense, you expect them to be the stronger unit and winning games.

When your QB throws for over 300 yds and 2 TDs, and loses the game, there's something wrong with the team. You are obviously not a fan of Campbell and just say that. When he throws for 60 yds and two or three picks, then you can call for a QB change.
