Ok, let's see if we can calm the waters here.

Hess, let's not kid ourselves you have been very critical of both Campbell and Rogers for a while now. I've seen though that you're coming around on Rogers. I don't see it yet with Campbell. I was frustrated too with the fumbles and the overall lack of discipline with the offense in key moments.

But we don't win that game without Campbell yesterday. He made some huge throws, he commanded the respect of the defense allowing Portis to get some huge gains. And that's not a one game fluke. He's been doing this consistenly all season.

So please specify for us what you saw, beyond the fumbles, that concern you.

Already did specify and considering I said "a small part of me" is concerned, I don't think there is much more to specify. I also said that JC didn't do poorly but I was concerned with the offense. You guys just want to take what I say and make it into this huge JC bash fest because you love to pick fights. And you are wrong, I have been very complimentary about JC these last few weeks. Feel free to check my threads on that.

You could have just said, "Actually, I have commended Campbell in recent weeks, and here are some posts to back that up" And then posted some links to posts you have.

As for your other concerns, I guess I just missed them. Other than your comments on Jansen

hesscl34 you should stop digging and chill.

I think what everyone is concerned about is this team not punching the ball in and beating on a team like the Lions with vengeance. The only regression I saw was is in the penalty department. That killed this team in the first half. As for JC missing wide open receivers that's possible even with his 82% completion day. It is also possible the ball wasn't intended for those wide open receivers. All in all this team needs to play better, I want a SB trophy not a playoff appearance. They played good but definitely not great vs the Lions.

Wow. Did we win yesterday? It seems like we lost. There's room to criticize the team, but what's up with all of the bickering?

May I suggest watching and singing along with the following:

Takeuon · 10-27-2008, 01:05 PM

That's great

When I get home from the watching the game I love to READ thru the Game thread! The end of this one def got out of control. LOL

COME ON BOYS! ITS ON TO THE STEELERS!

I do the same thing and if the people posting here controled the team we would have cut about 25 players before page 30 of this thread.

I wanted to see a blowout yesterday, but all things said, I'll take this win. We moved the ball at will, made some stupid mistakes, had a # of players out, Campbell looked very sharp minus a couple fumbles, and won the game. Our team hasn't put it all together yet and we still are winning. I'd be more worried if we weren't doing anything on offense.

That being said, Detriot's D is utterly horrible. It was bad. I've never seen WR's as open as yesterday. BAD. Especially their secondary. The 07 Patriots would get about 80 points on this team. Maybe more. Horrible.
