How bad is our secondary?

[44 goes 50 gut]

And while these were two good QBs, we still have to face Romo (twice), Manning (twice), Vick (twice), Ryan, Roethlisburger, and Newton -- all of whom are guys capable of hanging those kinds of numbers on us. If we cannot cover better (no matter what we do with the pass rush, which I agree has to improve from yesterday), we're in for a lot of 35-27 losses this season.

There's no magic fix to losing your starting CB1 and SS1 in two years, when you're trying to find a franchise QB, build an OL, give RGIII some weapons, and deal with an unexpected Cap penalty.

Fortunately most of us had realistic expectations going into this season amiright?

right? :yeahright
