That said, way too premature to write of the season. We could limp into the bye-week and still make this competitive.

I agree that it's still premature, but they need to improve a lot and quickly.
I disagree that the defense played well. I don't think they did. Yes, they played well early with some stops and sacks, but played really poorly the entire game in coverage and tackling. The only one that played well the entire game, but became a nonfactor late (because they were down by so much) was Kerrigan. They really need to do something with the quick hitch routes that gets the receivers and running back on the edges and in open space.
