(Except Weebie, that count)

We seem to only have 1 playmaker step up so far in each level with Ego on the line, Kwon in the LB corp, and Eugene in the secondary. (Though Freak and Tre white seemed to step up a bit).

But our offense scoring so fast has got to be a little different from what we've done the last few years and that affects the defense in multiple ways. We can no longer look at total yards allowed and judge the defense with as fast as this offense is scoring right now. It's no surprise they score a bit more than we expect. We have expected our offense to grind it out and score by pounding it on the ground. We are scoring so fast through gashes in he running game and easy pitch and catches in the passing game, that its got to affect the defense.

I'm more concerned about the health of our players. That's key to success this year

After the game, I said to myself "Whats Carl think?"

Thanks for coming through

Defense gave up 10 legit points all the while running a bland scheme and playing every kid on the roster. I don't see why the sky is falling

This is the best thread of the night.

Maybe of the week.

It is beautiful in its simplicity, yet it adequately evokes a sense of angst and forboding while also capturing the essence of what it means to be a worried fan together.

I love the comparative aspect and how Carl made sure to align himself with others who also shared his concern.

Bravo, Hot Carl.

Bra. Vo.

No, your first iteration was better.

You pulled the "I am concerned about the defense as anybody" routine and just dropped the mic and walked offstage. It was brilliant.

Now, you go explain yourself and all the mystery is gone.

I am disappoint.
