Guess who finished with a top 10 defense?

I'd like to know how our defense looked if you prorated for just the last half of the schedule. That was when they really clicked.

I'm very happy with Meeks' first year, and can't wait to see what we can do next year.

I too am very please with how our defense played toward the end of the year! Just think about next year when all of our starters return, and the upgrades in free agency and draft.... I believe we would have had the best defense regardless of the injuries if the offense could have stayed on the field to get the defense more rest on the sidelines... instead of going alot of three and outs.

Guess what, we also finished with one of the best rushing attacks in NFL history.

So for a guy to have the #4 defense in 2009, and have one of the best rushing attacks in NFL history.. the same guy who like to "run the ball and play defense"

Why the hell are we 8-8?

Think about it. There is something seriously wrong with all of this. I'm not asking for an answer, because we all know it. Just think about it.

It's even sadder when you think about some of our losses this year. And to think -- prior to the season's start we thought the last half of our schedule was going to be brutal.

Delhomo. If we had a game manager at QB this year, we would have made the playoffs. We didn't need our QB to win the games for us, we just needed him to not lost the games. Delhomme couldn't do that.

Yea, going back and looking at all that(one of the best rushing attacks in nfl history and top 10 defense), it really is sad. We should be in the playoffs. Instead of Fox going around the media sounding like he's hurt and upset about the situation the FO has put him in with his contract, he should be lucky he has a damn job.

      Canes vs Bruins 7pm Halloween Edition!

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      As I said less than 10 minutes into the game, Boston looks nothing like we're used to seeing. Regardless, any curb-stomping of the Bruins is welcome.  The scorers all got the glory tonight, but all 6 D-men had excellent games. Across the board- Gost, Orlov, Chatty, Walker and, of course, Slavin & Burns.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      I just tried a few mock draft simulators and this is the only way lol. Nothing else makes sense.

      No, biggest weakness is pass rush, but I don't think there is a blue chip can't miss DE prospect to take at #1 this year, same as with QB.  But beyond that, moving forward, yea WR is a pretty damn big weakness. We have 1 game this season over 224 yards passing and just traded away our best WR (who wasn't going to re-sign here anyways).  That WR no longer on the team was also the only player we've had this year who had over 78 yards receiving in a game.  So again, yea, WR is one of our biggest weaknesses even right now, let alone moving into the future. As I just said in my other post, I love Legette, but he's not going to be a Top 5-10 WR type of guy, Top 15-20 I can see, I think he can be a good #1 WR or an elite #2. After that, what do we have for the future?  Thielen isn't part of it, sure as hell isn't going to be Mingo, and as much as we all like Coker, in no world is Coker as our #2 to Legette as the #1 going be considered as "having weapons" at WR, even with Brooks and Sanders. But put someone like T-Mac into that group, who I genuinely think is going to be a Top 5 WR in this league for a long time, and it changes things.  A Top 5 WR with Legette/Coker as the 2/3, along with Brooks and Sanders, has the potential to be one of the best set of offensive weapons in the league if they reach their potential.
