re: Realism for today's game

2) Our OL is struggling

this is a legit concern considering some of the teams we still have to face this year... 49ers.. Panthers (twice)... Seahawks.

3) Defensively, Saints were missing 2 of their top 3 safeties and the 3rd was hurt multiple times throughout the game, and it is clear the backups aren't that good. I hope this game makes people realize how important M. Jenkins is to this defense's success.

that is a good point for the most part. Jenkins has played a lot better this year. I thought Rafael Bush took some terrible angles out there today.

but let's be real... the run defense was awful.

I thought the LB's were slow to the ball for the most part and other times, the D-line weren't keeping them clean.

How in the hell can you allow them to run it on us like that when they have NO frickING PASSING GAME to speak of??? Unbelievable.

Geno Smith sucks arse yet there we were falling for the gimmick plays here and there and when it was obvious that running was there best option, we had a hard time stopping it.

I know that this was a road game and all but the Jets aren't even close to the caliber of teams we will need to knock off to get in position to win the NFC and get our shot at the whole thing again.

I think we'll get right back up and win next Sunday night but down the road... some of our opponents are big matchup problems IMO (Seattle, SF).
