[QUOTE="Squints, post: 338998, member: 822"] Well in that post I was speaking in general terms. Not about last Friday. I wouldn't put that L solely on the defense. And never did. That being said if you really want to go there I think the hand waving away of their issues is nuts. They did not have to pitch a shut out. They had to be competent. They needed to give up less than 21 points in the second half. Not giving up 9.5 yards a play at the time would have been pretty cool too. I don't think that's a particularly high bar to set. Would the bar have been even lower without the fumbles and missed FGs? Of course it would. But that doesn't mean we should ignore the defense completely ****ting the bed in the second half and OT. That was a problem. Not to mention, there was only one TFL and no sacks the entire game. There were no QB hurries nor hits as far as I can remember. These are problems. And, unfortunately, they're not new ones. Why is it so hard to just admit the defense was also an issue against Tennessee? I don't remember you being this lenient on the offense after a similar drop-off in performance during last year's Duke game. [/QUOTE]
