That's 2 games in a row they really didn't do a fucking thing. Carr had all fucking night to throw. Guys are dropping shoulders and not wrapping up. YAC is killing us. Receivers are running wide open.
I will give them some credit in that I thought they stopped the run fairly well against the Raiders.
Defense gave the offense two possessions in TB territory and failed to score TDs. Held the Bucs to a TD below their season average. Then Patrick fumbled away a possession in scoring range. And missed a wide open Hardman for a score.

It's a team game.
Oh I'm agreeing with you.
I think the defense played pretty well overall. The d-line looked a little gassed there in the 4th quarter and the two roughing calls were bad.
But overall, they played well.
On offense, if Hardman makes that catch it's ballgame. If the refs call that other drive remotely fair, it's probably ballgame.
We're fine. We're better than fine. We're 10-1 and not peaked yet. There's plenty to clean up and improve yet. [Reply]
The defense turned into a pumpkin in the 4th quarter but all in all, they only allowed 24 points. If they do that we will win almost every game. [Reply]
Way better today than last week. More pressure generated with some notable blitzes from Hitchens and Mathieu, but the lack of front four pressure late was a bit concerning, considering that’s what this defensive roster is built for. [Reply]

Cut out the stupid penalties by Clark and they might have only given up 17.
Defense was much better this week. Scoring is on a record pace overall this year.
It's not just scoring. It's offensive efficiency, period.
Not only will 2020 be the highest-scoring season ever but it will break several records that haven't been broken since stats were kept.
For example, 3rd-down conversion percentage is on pace to crush the previous record by THREE percent. Teams are converting 3rd downs at just over 42% this year. It's unreal. [Reply]
