The same defense that kept us competitive the past several weeks and now we are crapping all over it.  How about an offense that put up only 14 points of which 7 of them came on busted play that allowed Coker to run straight down field uncovered? 

This is such a weird take. The defense has been trash all year.... Why are you so quick to run to the defense of a unit that has allowed more points than any other team in the the league?

Hmmm, the games the defense played the best are the games Bryce won. Point being, our defense isn't great, but our QB can't compensate for it.  Manufacturing more than 3 TDs is too big of an ask apparently.

I'd settle for the defense being below average. They are the worst in the NFL. The offense certainly hasn't been good but the defense has been flirting with historically bad.

“Defense played their best”

yet those teams all scored more points against us than 85% teams they’ve played this year.

got it.

Until today they had been improving over the first half of the season.  I'm not arguing the defense isn't bad, what I am saying is the games that we have been in lately the defense has kept the point total manageable to where the offense didn't have to be spectacular to keep us in games.

It would been hard to get worse than historically bad lol. So what you're saying is if the defense plays bad rather than historically bad we have a chance. Understood.

Bryce can't put up the points to cover the 30+ point output that teams were laying on us earlier in the year.  So the defense did improve, scoring wise, to aid in a 20 and 23 point output to beat the Giants and Saints respectively.

Exactly, the defense play has to coincide with Bryce having a career day.  Winning formula going forward, right?

Big picture, just improving the defense ain't fixing sh*t unless the offense gets fixed too.  Not unless we get like an '85 Bears defense where the offense can be an afterthought.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
