Re: It's not over yet!

It'd be nice to remember how to win just one game before we think about anything else.

We'll be pumped for Dallas. Like it or not, though, there will be a lot of people booing if Brunell starts off slowly. Let's hope he can hit a long one early on and set the tone.

Re: It's not over yet!

Hess you've got a point. I've always had a problem with the word "chemistry". I don't understand why players have a hard time just goin' out there and doin' the fuckin' job they are paid so handsomely to do! It just baffles me :confused: HAIL from MCUSA!

because nothing in life is ever more important than motivation, and going out and fighting for each other is much more meaningful than going out and fighting for a pay check you've already cashed.

If we had Peyton Manning we'd be undefeated! Peyton would utilyze our receivers. Of course we could say that about a lot of teams, but point is, Brunell is killing us. It is not motivation...we obviously have fire, but it's not clicking.

With our defense, I really doubt it.

I understand the thought, but I would wager the defense is let down by the offense. When the offense scores, the defense gets excited and would play better. It must be annoying to know if you let up 2 tds the game might be over.

If the D's mental state rests so heavily with what the offense does they really need to have their heads examined.

The defense is the one that has given up first drive scores in almost every game it seems. Also, the Skins were leading 14-13 at the half last week, only to see the D hand out TDs like candy in the 3rd quarter.

So maybe the offense is the one that's depressed?

If we put Brunell on the Colts, and we had Peyton, we still would have lost that game. Probably would have been closer, but close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades, not hypothetical situations.

If our D had been as good as it was a year ago, we would have won that game anyway, IMO. It just illustrates how far they have fallen.
