Guess who finished with a top 10 defense?

I'd like to know how our defense looked if you prorated for just the last half of the schedule. That was when they really clicked.

I'm very happy with Meeks' first year, and can't wait to see what we can do next year.

I too am very please with how our defense played toward the end of the year! Just think about next year when all of our starters return, and the upgrades in free agency and draft.... I believe we would have had the best defense regardless of the injuries if the offense could have stayed on the field to get the defense more rest on the sidelines... instead of going alot of three and outs.

Guess what, we also finished with one of the best rushing attacks in NFL history.

So for a guy to have the #4 defense in 2009, and have one of the best rushing attacks in NFL history.. the same guy who like to "run the ball and play defense"

Why the hell are we 8-8?

Think about it. There is something seriously wrong with all of this. I'm not asking for an answer, because we all know it. Just think about it.

It's even sadder when you think about some of our losses this year. And to think -- prior to the season's start we thought the last half of our schedule was going to be brutal.

Delhomo. If we had a game manager at QB this year, we would have made the playoffs. We didn't need our QB to win the games for us, we just needed him to not lost the games. Delhomme couldn't do that.

Yea, going back and looking at all that(one of the best rushing attacks in nfl history and top 10 defense), it really is sad. We should be in the playoffs. Instead of Fox going around the media sounding like he's hurt and upset about the situation the FO has put him in with his contract, he should be lucky he has a damn job.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
