And all you have to do is look back to last year after we got beat even harder than we did against s.d., when new England wringed our necks. We lost really badly and still were in a position to win the division. I can't count the number of times posters on here said, and I quote,


"The d will be better, they just need some time to gel."


I'm not defending wash or gus, I'm defending our players. I truly believe it will happen guys. And let's not forget how many of us said we expected 8-8 or 9-7, it's only been 2 weeks, and the first week we looked pretty good against a pretty good team, and then we have a really bad game in a part of the country where we historically have bad games and everyone's world on here is crashing and burning.


Jeez guys
