Going 7-9

We could win or lose any of the games left on our schedule.  The offense is still very capable of showing out and getting even better as the season goes on.  A modest defensive performance and an uptick in turnovers would be enough to start winning some games.  At this point confidence and attitude could affect this team more than anything.  Is there a HURRAH in our guys?

As much as the sky is falling this team is still much better than it's 1-5 record.  Let's rehash, missed FG in Denver, DA and terrible turnovers in a 3 point loss to Tampa, 21 point spot and amazing bad defense in a 3 point loss to NO.  That's 3 games where just a minor difference would have swung a win and we'd be 4-2.  That's literally 10 points separating us from 1-5 vs. 4-2.  Think about that...as bad as this defense has been, 10 total points in the right spots and we're 4-2 headed into the bye.

    • I think we pick it up and then someone else ends up emerging as the QB next year and we end up cutting him in year 5 and eating it.  That would be the most on brand thing to happen.
    • Evero has his faults, but even in that loss, the team only gave up 20 points. Your post gets to the heart of the matter. We are not a talented team on defense at this time. Some of our younger guys may develop w/more playing time, but for now we have no impact players at LB or EDGE. We could really use a ball-hawking S on the back end as well. We have exactly two players that have to be accounted for on every play, D. Brown, and J.Horn. Mike Jackson has been solid. The other starters would probably be backups on most the upper echelon NFL teams. We really can't expect this team to a Top 10 defense with such a lack of talent. All things considered I've been somewhat impressed with how much better they have played this year.   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-points-per-game   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-average-team-passer-rating We are in the top 15 in terms of points allowed per game (22.6) and top 12 in defensive passer rating (88.9). And, we are doing this without a formidable PASS RUSH. Even our rushing defense has improved. We are #16 in rushing yards allowed per game (116) compared to 179 per game last season. https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-rushing-yards-per-game I wouldn't cry if Evero moved on after the season, but his defense isn't the biggest worry for our team.
