I can see the offense really start to jell over the course of the year and see good things down the road.  All the money and focus has been about an "elite" defense....we got burned a lot and kind of easily.

I'm worried about the whole team. A shadow of 2015. Sad.

This. What is there not to be concerned about after today's game? 

But we are 2-1, the 2015 season is rarity for most teams.  Still worried about the D holding up all season.  I have more confidence in the O simply because of all the adjustment and newness at this point.  That offense is going to tough to deal with in a few weeks once Cam starts to smooth out a bit, they made better investments.    I'm just concerned about that Dfence....something seems off.

With very few exceptions, Sean Payton and Drew Brees have always kicked our D’s ass

lol, you are right and why I wasn't worrying about winning this one.  Everyone is having a fit over rusty Cam.  Not worried one bit, he just finished preseason...seems he and CMC are getting it together...if that dude doesn't get hurt, that offense is going to be potent in a few weeks. Shula actually had some creativity, I like what they are starting to do.

Yep, 2-1 against teams that will likely finish the year with losing records.

Brees kicked the 15 team's ass too.  Kuechly said something along the lines of "drew brees happened" when he was asked what happened to the D.   Of course the O was just good enough to win a shootout that year....so no, not worried about the D.  Perhaps some fans got a little too excited about this D after they played hoyer and Taylor?

      Also, in regards to XL and guys like Renfrow and JHJ, it’s hard to truly evaluate them because they aren’t getting enough opportunities.  XL, to me, seems like he turned a corner, which was evident in that career game a couple of weeks ago…  but then he’s only getting a couple of targets over the next couple of weeks.  Not to pile on Bryce because everyone knows where I stand on him, but it’s because of him.  Bryce made a nice throw to him yesterday, XL made a nice clutch grab, and then a packers defender took a cheap shot on him and he was out for a bit (I believe he came back?).  But, overall, it feels like for most of our WRs it’s feast or famine and no in between:  it’s not enough consistency in targets and distribution.

      Pretty sure it was both.  And the screen throw to rico that he literally jumped to do and it sailed over his head.  That type of poo is not fixable

      I just think it was an awful throw. He was trying to throw to the back pylon and just missed terribly. He had a little bit of pressure in his face and he can't deal with that. That's when the awful throws usually happen. I don't have a problem with that shot if it's thrown to the back pylon where it should've been. That ball thrown correctly to the outside is either caught by XL of is safely missed high and/or outside. You cannot miss that throw short and inside.
