What's up with these scab threads? Boo

My only complaints are Rex early and our Run D in the 2nd half

Wet blanket defeatist talk.
We're 2-0.
Enjoy it instead of planning for a future let down.
And we don't need to be a dominant team.
We just need to win.
Which we are doing.

I'll be enjoying it until the end of the day, but at the end of the day, 2-0 means nothing. 2-0 doesn't make the playoffs, 2-0 doesn't prove anything, 2-0 just means you were good enough to win 2 weeks in a row. I want sustained success, not feel good stories in the second week of the season. I'll start celebrating if we have a division title locked up, or a playoff berth locked up, or a winning record and a playoff berth after the 17th week of the season. 2-0 might make you think we should already declare this season a success, but I don't think that way.

I realize since we won today, you have put on your 1968 Burgundy Colored Aviators, which help to obscure all the bad play from today, but not everybody chooses to ignore reality.

I'm enjoying the other teams stains of bad play.
My glass is half full.
HTTR!

I am with you on all that.

Redzone and 3rd down were kinda poor today. Last week they were pretty solid. I like to see us run the ball more effectively in both these situations.

Gano...you kicked the game winner, but that kick outta bounds to start the 2nd half is just effing horrible. Need to see more consistency.

Injuries in the secondary are becoming a real bitch now. Wilson, Laron, Barnes need to get healthy.

Other than that, not bad. Its not really individuals, but situational stuff that needs to improve.

Impatient group here I see. Couldn't wait a little while for Scud and I to start our threads

Mooby...I'm not mad. I just thought I'd have a little fun with you. Our stealth mods were watching the apparent coup being secretly organized in the gameday thread...they're always watching

We don't need you guys anymore! Can't you see we are self-sufficient. I sense some Mubarak like crackdowns this week to try to put us in check.

Never! Posters unite!

It's a matter of who I like more, Dirtbag359 or SmootSmack. I can't decide.

You know who was a big dud today? Whoever thought it was a good idea to leave 6'8" Calais Campbell unblocked on the blocked field goal.

Oh it's all in good fun, I'm fine with it.

Smackdown on Haslett. I think our defensive scheme was lackluster in the 2nd half. Kolb had a terrible 1st half and our secondary played relatively well early in the game. We should have come out (defensively) in the 3rd quarter expecting them to try to pound the pigskin w/ Wells, as they did. We should have put more guys in the box and not let them get anything going. Something is up w/ the right side defensively as most of the big gains on the ground seem to go there. Orakpo struggling in run defense/containment? Doughty? Hard for me to say.

Also within the defense Cofield looked very average today i.e. no impact out there. Why didn't Nield get more action today?
