re: We can still go 14-2

We cut down on the penalties, and improved the run game. But still had the turnovers, amongst all sorts of other continuing problem areas I wont even begin to get into.
The past 2 seasons we were good enough that if we shot ourselves in the foot we could still beat the average teams easily enough, and sometimes beat the good teams. But now we have to play mistake free, or well enough, to beat the average teams.
We can't afford to leave points out there any longer settling for FG's or drive killing negative plays. But most of all we can't gift wrap the other team easy points from turnovers.
I think we continue to improve, even if it's just a small amount, and might get it all together at some point on offense.

Was very pleased with the running game, and the improvement in play calling today must be pointed out. Carolina at home plays us tough, and I had this game as a potential loss anyway. The defense absolutely must improve, it really can't get any worse. It's been noted that Spags in NY had a defense give up 80 points in it;s first 2 games, then improved significantly leading to a Superbowl. We don't have the talent that D line had, but this defense can at least become serviceable, and that's what we need. We were completely out of sync in week 1, but today was much improved. I also think Vitt will get more out of these guys. We need to get a few wins in this six game stretch though.
