As a positive I would add that we dominated the stats. I know that the score is the only relevant stat in the end. But still, it is not like we bombed. There were little, correctable errors in several places and some bizarre bad luck, that's all. The boys played hard, if without focus at crucial times.

I actually thought Springs was the one who did the job on TO, but I agree with your point. My beef with Carlos Rogers is that he cannot seem to hang on INTs, but his coverage has been solid (indeed, improved from the last 2 seasons). My big concern right now is Santana Moss. Is he in the witness protection program? Is he too short for JC to spot? What's going on? Randle El seems to be the go to WR, but we have GOT to involve Moss more in the passing game.

After protecting the ball well all season, we had to have a game where things went badly. It's too bad that this kind of implosion didn't happen during a week in which the Rams were playing inspired football -- it would have been nice to have turnovers and yet still win, which we could easily have done if any number of things had happened differently (better pressure on Bulger, miss of a 49 yard FG, Avery doesn't make a Tyree-esque catch, etc.).
