It was 100 missed tackles not 2 missed passes

Can we all get real here. We did not lose this game because Ginn missed three catches, or Fasano missed one. OUR DEFENSE WAS HORRIBLE. Did any of you haters watch the game? Because if you did how is our offense the biggest of your worries? We gave up 27 point in 14 minutes. Thats almost 2 points per minute they were on the field. 80 yard TD, 48 yard TD, 150+ yards after the catch. Blame the D for the loss, no one else. Yes he should have caught the 40+ yard hail marry at the end, but problem is he shouldnt have had to make that play. OUR D WAS TERRIBLE thats the problem!

"150+ yards after the catch"

That says it all right there. There's no excuse for that.

That was the most distressing aspect of the game for me.

Manning and his receivers carved us up...and with such speed, I thought we were the prime rib station at Golden Corral. {Yeppers...that Sheriff Manning sure brought the law down on us.}

Offense did what it was game planned to do and played well enough to win. Defense lost this game. Not sure if it was scheme, players, or both, but the D takes the blame for this loss.

well there is no doubt our defense lost this game for us but Fasano, Ginn and the other wrs need to get more consistant . ginn is good but he is a #3 wr at best though so right now we need a #1and#2 wr and another real good olineman and on the deffensive side of the ball we need two more linebackers , two ore safties and another cb . am i wrong on this ?

I don't think our D was ready for Manning. He caught us in bad defenses repeatedly. It seems like a coaching issue to me. That plus Crowder and Ayodele cannot cover anyone. We need to sneak down to SF and kidnap Pat Willis.

Same play twice to dwight clark down the middle, same results, you would think they would've made and adjustment during half time.

I really do believe we need Roth. TE's were neutralized when he was on the field last year.

TE spanking the defense is inexcusable, maybe 1 play but all game and 2 games in a row. Sad sad day. Peyton had Wayne, Clark and a ton of rookies to throw too and somehow we didnt account for his 2 main targets. Thats how we lost this game.
