Murdered !


What we had done to the Colts in the playoffs a few years ago was done right back to us yesterday by the Jaguars. We got murdered 41-0. Ouch.

Right from the start, it was a disaster. First of all, the 3-4 defense is NOT working. The holes were enormous for the Jags to run thru. Their first 2 touchdown runs were up the middle and were not even touched by the defense. This team needs 4 men on the line and needs Vilma to be the middle linebacker to float around and wreak havock like he did last year. I'm not loving the system now by Mr. Mangini. It's not working and it is not like there isn't any talent on the defensive line and the linebacker core. It would be nice to get some pass rush going. Oh wait, we did have some pass rush but we got fucked by the refs twice. The first was when Vilma came rushing in and pounded the QB while releasing the ball and they called roughing. Come on...give me a break. How the hell was he suppossed to know that the QB did not have the ball in his hands. The second time was worse. We sacked the QB for what appeared to be a safety and they called a roughing the passer penality. The QB still had the ball so basically they called a penality for tackling the QB too hard? I've NEVER seen that ever. We were still getting murdered at the time but what the freggin hell !

As for the offense, the running game was a bit better with Leon Washington getting nearly 100 yards. I want this guy to be the starter. This running back by committe idea sucks. You need one guy to get the bulk of the runs so he can get into a groove. Every possession, you can't change the running back. That doesn't work.

Chad was not great yesterday throwing two interceptions but the first one was not all his fault as it was deflected. Part of the problem was that no one was open and our field position was horrendous all day.

I don't know what else to see. The entire game was embarrassing. I had it on but found my self not paying too much attention in the 2nd half. Just think, we probably won't have a game the rest of the season that is worse than this one !
