A few people have mentioned it, but not enough stock has been put into it IMO. But this defense HAS to be worn down, and I think it showed Saturday. The lack of depth/shortage of numbers eventually catches up to you.
I think our guys were motivated. I think they were ready to play. I just feel like they looked tired and a step slow. I hope they find an extra burst of energy for Saturday--but I am afraid that it may not be physically possible.

I brought this up about us only playing 16 total players on defense. That is extremely light for a defense. 7 of our 11 starters played at least 90% of the snaps. Guys like Wingo, Ojulari, Garner, Ward, Penn, Brooks and Baskerville either didnt come off the field or came off for a few snaps at most.
The lack of defensive depth really hurt us this game. This is where you really miss guys like Bernard-Converse, Smith, Richardson, etc....its so tough for defensive linemen especially to play an entire game like they have been,
