On Blache

Sadly when our DBs have caught an INT, the offense has not been able to capitalize.

I don't know anything about football.

So please review the plays for me in the fourth quarters of the Cowboys, Ravens and Bengals games when the Skins needed a defensive stop to get the ball back with a chance to win or tie the game. Tell me how the "Top 10" defense produced when it mattered.

I'll hang up now and wait for my answer...

That's a good point but it doesn't let the D completely off the hook. They've dropped too many INTs, it's just not acceptable.

I do agree the offense is a big problem. When you're scoring 10 points a game you're just not going to beat many teams in this league no matter how good your defense is.
