    Yeah we are 0-2 but I haven't seen anyone talk about the quality of our losses.

    We lost to New England by the same score as San Diego, an apparent Super Bowl contender.
    We lost to Baltimore, a Super Bowl contender, by a touchdown with our backup QB. Yeah they had their backup in as well but it is still impressive that we were able to stay close with their defense.
    Yeah the losses were ugly but there is still light at the end of the tunnel. If we lose to Miami, maybe I am completely wrong, but I say we still have reason to keep our heads high!

    No sacks, no turnovers, no 100 yard rushers, bad special teams.

    What's up with CJ Mosley? Didn't this guy have three sacks and two forced fumbles in one drive during the preseason? Let's plug him in their somewhere. (Blitzing Corner!)

    Bro when it comes down to it, we are still rushing them 1 v 1 and our guys arent winning. Not every rusher on our team is getting doubled every play, and our OLBs cant get past RBs. Tom Brady is good at avoiding sacks as his line is good and he is good in the pocket. But Boller, comeon man. OUr guys arent even getting close. Our best pass rushers cannot get by their guy 1 v 1 right now so something needs to change.

    Here's something to be positive about: There is 14 games left to redeem ourselves.

    We have to see a major turn around in every faze. This would be the game to do it in.

    1981 we were 0-3 and made the playoffs, 1998 0-2, 2002 2-5. Gotta start somewhere though, another division home game would not be good to lose.

    Everyone knew we had a tougher schedule this year, so why is everyone calling the apocalypse after losing to these two great teams. I don't know about 5 sacks this week, but I agree on the O-Lines. The thing is, we were never a great sacking team unless Abraham was on the field, but at least we could get some pressure to force some turnovers.

    YOU ARE Kidding me right. OK we win the next 4 games. NOW we push for the playoffs I'm sure your thinking. THEN WE FACE one of the two teams we just played and get knocked out again. I WANT A TEAM THAT BEATS those TWO teams. I want teams to fear us ( JETS ) and as fans feel good about going into each game, not thinking can we win this.

    Granted. But that isn't really an option right now. Building a team that people fear takes time. The point of this post was to say we aren't in as bad of shape as most people are bitching. Take some Ritalin, the world isn't black and white.
