If you really think about why we lost some of those games, it comes down to one play. Or 1 MISplay. -And all of this going on with NO offensive gameplan. or run game. 10-6 is FINE.
Our run defense seemed to get punched in the mouth almost every game by opposing O-line's, especially in the 2nd half of games. People say that's because of all the 3 and outs of our offense but the main reason is we lost our big DT's and they were the heart and soul of our run defense. Now, when I think of some of the games coming down to one play, I have hard time remembering just one play being the reason for our loss but I do see a lot of 3rd and down and short being converted against our lousy run defense and our O-line not being able to get any push in our own run game. A few of his INT's were him trying to make something out of nothing, one was a tipped pass and the rest just looked like really poor decisions by Feeley.
But like I said earlier... the rest of the AFC East isn't exactly heads and shoulders above us in the talent pool so some injuries to their starters and we could surprise a lot of teams in our division.
