Thread: Well, despite this loss

I dont think we have a problem at QB honestly. I saw some awesome throws by Teebs today. I just think he will get better as he gets more experience. But defensively we got some serious issues.

I agree. There were some tight windows that he made perfect throws too. Some off throws of course as well, but that's OK as long as they aren't intercepted.

I still think he will get 10X better with a whole off-season to work on things.

Tebow was not why the Pats won today. He played pretty solidly

Absolutely, and he was still playing with heart when the game was over. If we make the playoffs, this team is probably not superbowl quality, but I think we're still good enough to be that "spoiler team" that might surprise one or two opponents. Need a lot of upgrades on defense, but keep in mind we should also be getting Dawkins back.

Honestly I would have been shocked if we won. I agree Tebow looked much better though. No harm done with the Raiders falling to the lions today, so I'll give them a mulligan. Hope we regroup and finish strong!

Agreed--though he did fumble *again*, which sucked.

The defense got taken to school, fellas.

I mean we put the defense in a bad bad position today. With 3 turnovers in the 2nd quarter on a short field and momentum swinging completely. 17 points off turnovers today all in one quarter. that kills you on the scoreboard and killed our dominant flow we had going. We never seemed to gain it back.

This team is still legit though and scary, But yeah we dont need a QB its obvious where the problem is and thats CB,DT,RB. And somebody needs to tell Tebow to RUN the ball when the lanes are clearly there instead of looking to scramble around everytime and try to make something happen throwing. Pick and choose better tebow. Youve proved you can throw the ball now dont over do it and take away whats made us successful also YOUR LEGS. extending drives with first downs is what this offense is about. I hope Tebows not listening to the critics that much.

gay play by fag bags

The refs were slinging the flags alot for the pats today.

not to be a defensive apologist, but they fumbled inside their own 30 three times.

Fumbles or No Fumbles. Brady tore us a new one.

The fumbles which resulted in scores and a large lead took us out of our game plan. Had we not turned the ball over and kept running the ball I think we could have an eked out a victory.

It was a backwards week all around. The defense, which had been outstanding, played poorly. The offense, which had been dreadful, looked solid enough. The Packers lost. Indy won. The universe spun counter-clockwise for awhile. But we still got our miracle comeback finish - it just came in Oakland this week instead of Denver. We still lead the division and own some tie-breakers. Keep the faith. We're still alright.

Remember how the Jets got blown out by the Patriots last year then beat them in the playoffs. I'm hoping for a similar scenario this year.

We got beat by a far superior team

The fact that we handed it to them with 3 TOs didn't help, but it was NOT the reason we got beat, it was one of the reasons
