This team has talked about grit and perseverance, and how they play the game play by play, forgetting about the last play as soon as it's over. We will see if that's true in this second half. They have two choices. They can roll over and act like the bitches they were in the first half, or they can follow through with the talk they have talked and come out swinging in the second half. We will see.

Defense is undermanned and I can't really blame Marinelli. Too many below average players.
I agree.

You cannot win with guys like Mincey, Hayden and Selvie starting. You just can't.

They are all rotation and backup guys on any other team in the NFL.

Why we try to convince ourselves that they are not is beyond me.

Marinelli cannot will them to be a step faster. He can get that effort, and that isn't good enough to overcome the physical limitations.

I expected the D to give up points, but for the offense only to have 7 at the half is a problem. D has actually kept us in the game holding them to FG's last three scoring drives. Offense has to score on just about every possession in the second half. Need a touch on first series.

Even if they swing and land a punch, then what?

Oh the incredibly outmatched defense is back on the field being asked to bend but not break.

I get the anger at the offense, but it is passive aggressive.

The offense has to protect them each and every game by grinding out the run game and keeping them from breaking a sweat.

They just are not good enough to step up if the offense doesn't click.

They did against the Giants. Hold out hope, my friend.

Or, just stop watching.

Fuck, I'm so pissed right now. FUCK!

My nine year old came downstairs and asked me why the hell I had Pitbull on the TV. I had no answer.

Wow I wondered what the big deal about Pitbull was and how he was on all these commercials. Still wondering...

I know, but going into today you knew we need to put up a bunch to win. The D is/was going to give up points. I expected a shootout. The offense needs more than 7 here. Unacceptable.
