( the Giants scored 45 points on us on offense yesterday)
dude, come on. where did they start on most of their drives? how many turn overs did they get that again started the offense in field goal range?
this is exactly what im talking about. no one is looking at the defense objectively. they did well. last game, they got completely fricked over by both offense and special teams. to judge them on that is unfair. yet people ignore the turn over and pressure they got. give me a break.

Williams' blitz 65% of the time defense hid the weaknesses this defense really had. It was a gimmick defense that worked well enough to win a Super Bowl. It out immediate pressure on QBs forcing bad passes and creating turnovers. It got figured out.
Now we're moving towards a legitimate defensive scheme and the players aren't used to it. We have the get a pass rush from our front 4 which we didn't do the first several weeks. Spags has made adjustments and those are working. The defense hasn't lost the last three games for us. The defense gave up yards but kept points off the board and gave the opportunity for the offense to win the game. The offense hasn't taken a single one of the opportunities the past three weeks.

not to mention they put the first points on the board... and then the offense finally decides to put one in the endzone but we were trailing 35-13 at the time. So we score, its 35-20. Then the defense gets another turnover, the offense does its job and the lead is cut to 35-27. That was as good as it got the whole game...
we're just not playing well as a team right now. Just hope we can close out this year with a three game win streak. I hope like hell we stop this trend where we split the season series with the Bucs. That needs to end on Sunday, I'll be over at the Dome yelling like mad
Edit: and the defense will continue to get the brunt of blame no matter what. They did have that terrible start so that is what most fans(casual fans) will come on here and bitch about.
Half of these assholes let ESPN think for them and get caught up in statistics game... its such a lazy way to view things.
