    It's hard to underplay how well we did against a really good defense and rushing team.

    I did see that. I bet AB wanted Ben to audible into a pass there. No need.

    I saw it but I just thought they both were conceding that they were just playing it safe.

    AV came back in, but then Gilbert left. I think it was just cramps. Got to keep those hogs hydrated!

    It looked to me like AB wanted to try and throw for the first down instead of running it and settling for the FG.....I'm not gonna make too much of it but this O needs to stop going bombs away and forcing the ball to Brown when he's not open...we foolishly squander too many possessions every game with selfish play and stupidity.

    Win by 17, defense allows 9 points and holds the opposing offense to under 300 yards and people still aren't happy.

    I guess it comes under the heading of "crime of passion" like AB having unnatural relations with the goal post

    I'm happy with the win.

    But we weren't playing their offense at it's best. If we did that against a healthy Bradford, I'd be skipping down the street.

    And offensively, just too much stupid. Now, maybe we took them lightly, so decided to try things out against a good D we wouldn't normally do. Maybe...

    But the offense didn't play playoff football today. That's fine. There's still plenty of season left.

    Unfortunately I think a lot of our problems today were on Ben. I don't know what it is, but he's just off and has been for a while.

    Unfortunately, every team they play this season will not have a back up or rookie QB.

    Happy with the win.....disappointed in the same mistakes and same poor game planning and adjustments or lack there of...I expect more from this offense. I know Minnesota is tough sledding but just too many wasted plays...

    No meaningful snaps in pre-season maybe?

    Good thing we got an easy schedule to start.

    No doubt that would have been a different story with Bradford playing,the pressure wouldn't have made his day easy, either.

    The biggest defensive concern right now is injuries. Watt was having another impressive performance before he got hurt today and I'm sure the front would have been even better with Tuitt in there.

    Gonna be a huge game in 2 weeks in Baltimore. I'm sitting out guys like Tuitt and Watt next week and making sure they are 100 percent for the Ravens game in 2 weeks which will be huge game for early in the season as both teams will probably be 3-0.

    Tell me about it. Ronde Barber? Someone tell these executives they dont have to hire every ex player to do color. He gave zero info, explained nothing and threw every cliche in the book to describe players, coaches and plays.
