Well the defense made a turn and is now formidable. Never forget that.

The defense was awful today. Allowing long sustained drives, cant tackle at all, cant cover (McCoy was 35/44 for 328 and 2 TD's), cant get off the field. The Hawks finally score to get them within 3 (due to Prater leaving 7 points off the board) and the defense immediately gives up another TD drive. The defense had every bit as much blame for that loss than the offense did. They stunk. Same old defense.

And run all over.
But the offense did nothing to help.
Neither did the coaching staff.
So complaining about the D for this game seems misguided.
Plenty went wrong, with everything. The D was not great, or even good. But it wasn't the biggest problem today.

I am on my 25th wedding aniversary dinner and so i dont have time to look at the stats but i think TOP was 40 cards 20 hawks so even if the hawks had a top 5 D there is no way that D is going to be competitive in thev4th quarter... especially having lost both starting corners...LTH

I'm sick of hearing about the TOP all the time when the defense is at much fault for it as the offense. They cant get off the field.
Anyways here is the definition of formidable -
for·mi·da·ble
/ˈfôrmədəb(ə)l,fərˈmidəb(ə)l/
inspiring fear or respect through being impressively large, powerful, intense, or capable.
"a formidable opponent"
LOL. The Seahawks defense is not that. Just the opposite actually.

Yes like they did against Peyton in 48.
They gave up the soft underneath stuff, but punished any receiver, TE, or back as soon as they caught the ball.
Now they give up the soft underneath stuff and there is no punishment. Instead, there is a gaping hole for a first down on 3rd and 10.
I miss Kam Chancellor.
Snap counts against the Cards:Jville":3vjz0nb7 said:So the offense was on the field for 45 snaps and the defense was on the field for 77 snaps. That's 32 more snaps that the defense was on the field. The defense was exhausted by the fourth quarter again this week.
Is it time to consider taking a few roster spots away from the offense and giving those spots to the defense?

Dunlap 17
Robinson 19
Mone 27
Neal 11
Barton 9
Hard to blame this on the D being exhausted.
Point being those guys would've had a lot more snaps if cardio was an issuechris98251":2tc83f0n said:Mone is the only one that really isn't situational but still in a rotation, you kind of left out the other 10 or so guys............
