    Looked like a BIG FAT DUMP today. I don't want to hear about injuries, suspensions, etc. no excuses! They couldn't step up one time down the stretch to give the offense a chance to tie or take the lead. Something has to be done about our shitty asz DB's because they all sucked big time!

    Talk about a complete difference between last week and this week. This team can NEVER put other sides of the ball on the positive side!

      I just can't stand all the missed tackles.

          How do you not make excuses when your too starting CB's are out?

            I seriously don't know what some people expected from this season. We were ranked dead last by most experts before the season started and to fans of other teams we are a joke!

            The difference on offence between this week and last week was like night and day and we now have a players on offence you can at least hope might make a play. The defence is missing players and with a roster like ours we need our best players on the field.

            Get behind the team for Christ sake, they are young and trying to improve, what do you want?

              Agreed. Our D has been awful since 1999. Last week and today was a great illustration. Vick handed us game 1 and we didn't take it. We should be 2-0. I'm ashamed of our D.

                Our D has looked great other than our CB's today, which is to be expected when your too starters are out.

                The D-line did a great job against the run today, DQ had another int. Front 7 looked as legit this week as they did last week. Once Haden and Brown are back were a top 10 defense, nothing to be ashamed about.

                  our D is the least of our worries....TILL TODAY!!

                  hey man, how can we be called so bad when a team, from our own conference, who is better on paper than us beat us by just a TD?

                  our Ol stepped up. our rookie RB and QB played great. and to whoever said massaquoi is not a good receiver....well take that jack.

                  i'm the numero uno pessimist 'thesky is falling freak'. yet even though we lost the last 2 weeks, i see good things in the future.

                  weeden didn't turn the ball over, he didn't toss up jump ball interceptions and the OL actually pulled (pun intended) a couple of plays together to put TR to a 100 yd. mark.

                  if they can do this all year long and win 4 games ...at least we'll see improvement.

                    I just don't understand, for the life of me, how a corner lines up in the neutral zone. Twice.

                      Week 1 vs Philly... 309 yds passing + 150 yds rushing

                      Week 2 vs Cinci.... 295 yds passing + 80 yds rushing

                      So we give up 84 fewer yards, but go from "great" to "suck city"??? 😳

                      I said it before, I'll say it again...

                      We were not "great" Week 1... we were opportunistic.

                          The fact is, we put up points, had a lot of positive plays, and if we were whole at teh DB squad, chances are we would have beaten Cinci.

                          I think the team did well, and believe they will keep getting better.

                              We still had a nice pass rush it's good to see consistent pressure by our d-line.

                              Sheard has been quiet, can't expect much with both corners out.

                                I was wondering the same thing last night. I remember one play yesterday when he completely owned the RT, but didn't get to Dalton in time.

                                I've seen some good from Rucker and Rubin and the LBs malikg plays for loss. I wonder if Sheard is getting respect from the OL, freeing others to make plays. I'll be looking at the tape this week.

                                  The D-line did a great job against the run today, DQ had another int. Front 7 looked as legit this week as they did last week. Once Haden and Brown are back were a top 10 defense, nothing to be ashamed about.

                                  Our defense is gonna be bad ass real soon. Shurmur said Phil Taylor could be back in a couple weeks, Haden returns for week 6. We add two stars to a already solid D. Its all coming together on offense and defense. Were gonna make a run at the division, will it be to little to late? Will see, Im not giving up yet

                                    Our defense is gonna be bad ass real soon. Shurmur said Phil Taylor could be back in a couple weeks, Haden returns for week 6. We add two stars to a already solid D. Its all coming together on offense and defense. Were gonna make a run at the division, will it be to little to late? Will see, Im not giving up yet

                                    We can certainly hope so.

                                      Our D gave up 16pts on the road to an authentic Super Bowl contending team. Yes, they could've played better on the last series and gotten the ball back quicker, but damn, that unit is the LEAST of our problems.
