geez, people are acting like we lost the game... i just don't... oh, oh yeah, that's right.

brunell is inconsistant, but the play calling sucked. we tried the same sweeps and such that we used againt two BACKUP DEs in jacksonville. when you replace them with very active and much faster DEs (and become predictable) it doesn't work as well. the NYG DTs stepped up too. they didn't get great push, but they didn't let portis run past them either.

and yeah, pierce and clark were mistakes. smoot would have been nice to keep, but GW rather have big tacklers than guys who can cover :P the big problem with pierce was letting him go to a team that we play twice a year that needed a MLB so desperately. trotter helps the eagles too, so that kinda sucks, but dumping him was the right call.

smoot wasn't cheaper (than rogers or other #2 CBs) btw. and trotter wasn't either (pierce and marshall were making vet min).
