Can we get some love for the Defense?

No one was being negative in this thread before you jumped in. I simply pointed out that they've been very good, but they'll get tested in coming weeks.

The D gets tested every time the O goes three and out, gets handed scoring opportunities and field position and fails to capitalize, when we muff punts or get them blocked when they are constantly defending a short field etc...

So Trip you make your observations through whatever shade your glasses are, while a growing number of people OBSERVE your biases week in and week out.

A team is a team you win and lose together if the defense or offense plays great and the other side stumbles you'll probably lose 9 out of 10. This is not basketball it is rare that one guy can take over a game if everyone on the other side of the ball is doing their job. Bottom line we are not playing well enough but in response to the thread I think the defense could get a little love this week.

The O doesn't stumble, it drops a deuce for the D to clean up.

and from such an analytical mind...I put about as much confidence in that statement as I put in all of your other analysis. Only you didn't come up with that did you. I think one of your boyfriends said it first.
