Oh well!

[RugbyMuffin]

Turnovers killed us.

We looked OK out there. But turnovers did it again.

The Defense didn't do bad. Just that the Ramshave such a good offense.

Little is definately not 217 lbs anyone. He is much better than I thought, and I retract earlier statements that he would not be a problem today.

Suck it up and look on to next week.

Definately not even close to as bad as Seattle.

Peace

What?

I guess we have to lower the standards for our defense?

I thought that the D sucked against the run and the pass.

Time of possession was 42:27 to 17:33. The Rams only punted twice all day.

The Rams moved the ball at will against our "defense".

The defense was on the field 40 minutes. But just because our offense can't move the ball doesn't mean their offense needs to be given the red carpet treatment. We have to stop them and reduce those 40 minutes. If the defense stops them every once in a while the time of possession drops dramatically. ARRRRGGGHHHH

The defense was rotten. Only a time consuming drive to get within 7 would have made things LOOK better. The Rams out classed us and I dread to think what's going to happen when we play the Vikes. They're usually flat after an egg like this so next week'll be horrible as well.

Without a pass rush our defense had no chance against a team like the Rams. I predicted that Holt and Bruce would own us with our noexistant pass rush so I'm not surprised.

What pisses me off is the turnovers and penalties that keep killing drives. Our Offense needs to play smarter to keep us in the game.

We were one Int away from possibly being withing 3 points, so I cna't say our D sucked too but, just sucked reasonably bad.

But sucked none the less.

 

[MadCardDisease]

Aside from Dexter Jackson and our Line Backers our defense definetly sucked today. All of which stems from no pass rush what so ever against a team that excells at passing the ball.

 

[Stout]

The defense completely and utterly sucked. We would have had to try REALLY hard to be more inept on defense than we were.

I don't want to ramble too much. I'm quite, quite upset right now and am afraid I'd get into it with anyone who might want to be positive, so I'll wait for the time being.

 

[Sandan]

At least we looked competative for 3 qrts until the devastating fumble.

After that we wer rplaying catchup which wasn't going to work with the Rams and our inability to stop them passing.

 

[Sandan]

No Stout, we were inept on pass defense, we did reasnably well on the run.

Please, we were awful against the run. They continually got the corner on us until later in the game.

I said not bad. Nobody stepped up. They played a decent game.

Our D playing a decent game + Normal Rams Offense = Loss

The Rams offense owned our defense

Rugby, are you sober?

To say the defense "played decent" in one post, and then turn around say the Rams "owned" the defense in the next post is pretty funny.
