We need a defense folks.....

Quit crying like babies.

We have given up an average of 25 points a game in the 2nd half of the season.

You cant win football games when your team is giving up almost 400 yards a game over the last 8 weeks.

If it was not for our running game we would not have even been in the Playoff's.

So here is to next season, finding a defense (DT, DE's- BACKFIELD) AND THEN WOOPING SOME ASS NEXT SEASON.

We have good core of players on the team overall... and they will likely draft a lot of defensive players this year.

The O line and running game should be back next yr (assuming Gross stays) and that will go a long way towards having another good year.

Gonna be interesting to see how they handle the Peppers situation... if they tag him he could be dealt for more picks to beef up the defense... or even traded for players...

But I agree... the d needs the work this go round...

Peppers doesnt sound like he is leaving any time soon.---

On head coach John Fox's message to the team after the game: It's been a great season. Again, we would have liked to have gone further and accomplished more goals, but it didn't happen. Next year you've just got to see if you can get some of those things corrected and win the ultimate goal.

On if there need to be fundamental changes to the team: No. This is the right team. This is a great bunch of guys. There's a lot of talent in here. Young guys, old guys. The right people in the locker room. Today it was just a bad day. If we play that team tomorrow or we had played them yesterday it may have been a different outcome, but today they were the better team.

I disagree that people should stop "crying like babies" because as a fan if you aren't pissed about last night then you aren't a fan. But I do agree that defense needs to be the main focus.

Would releasing Lucas and restructuring Jake's contract free up enough room for a FA like Haynesworth?

Hold on a second here. Did our defense throw 5 interceptions and 1 fumble? You're being fuging hypocritical when you tell people to stop crying and then you intimate that our defense is the problem. Quit your bitching about the defense and put the blame where it's warranted....Delhomme lost that game for us, all by himself. He even said as much. Last night wasn't the defense's fault. They surely didn't help matters, but their backs were up against the wall from the start.

Turdo needs to be gone, and the quarterback situation has to be addressed for starters.

No one player loses a game by himself, stan.

The more you post, the more I think you're not right in the head.

He's not saying that Jake isn't to blame, but AK isn't one of the ones calling for Jake to be outta here. The defense has been more inconsistent than Jake this season. And has been overall mediocre through the last half of the season.

I think that reflects on the coaching. I believe we have the talent to be a great defense, we're not headed in the right direction, though.

But AK doesn't put the blame only on the defense.

We have needed a defense for A LONG TIME---

Last night was just a nightmare. Cant change it, and our offense will be ok.

I am not worried about scoring points, its stopping other teams from doing it that bothers me. We have not done that in a long while.

This is NOT ABOUT last night....

Jake lost the game all by himself. We had absolutely zero chance of winning that game, even if we had the best defense in the league. Look up the winning percentage of teams whose quarterback turns the ball over 6 times and get back to me.
