Default Harrison on the defensive meltdown

From the Pats website:

Quote:
As veteran safety Rodney Harrison pointed out Wednesday, everyone on defense should share the blame for Sunday’s meltdown after allowing 404 yards of total offense.

“We all have an opportunity to play better,” Harrison said. “Whether you missed a tackle, whether you missed a coverage, something mental – the mental aspect of the game – we all can play better. Obviously, in a loss like that it’s disappointing, so it’s easy to sit back from a media standpoint or even a team standpoint and try to point fingers. We’re sticking together.

“We’ve been through times before. There’s a lot of football left. From week to week, people jump on and off the bandwagon, but it’s what the 53 guys in this locker room think.
Rodney's going to have to be a leader. in that secondary (if he ever plays there). I still think Deltha will do well here. It would be easier if he could confidently move his family out this way. It's gotta be mentally tough only seeing your wife and kids one day a week.

I am not jumping off the Bandwagon Rodney. I am with you the whole way.

This "Defensive Meltdown" (as it's being called) is nothing new. This secondary, even with Asante Samuel has cost the Pats no less than TWO Super Bowl Chamionships in the last 2 seasons. They folded against both Mannings, and that reality is hard to swallow, but it can't be changed. I think the Capers addition is a measure to address the situation, but it's still a work in...well, I have yet to see "progress".

Before you blame the defense for the playoff failures you should ask yourself two questions:

In the last 30 years, how many teams have scored 14 or less points in the super bowl and come out victorious?

(that would be 0).

What was the Pats longest drive in the last 37 minutes of the 2006 AFCCG?

(that would be 34 yards).


Football is a complimentary game my friend.

Rodney is the man.....

You are AN IDIOT!

I am not off the bandwagon. I'm right here, day in and day out, Win or Lose. I'm trying to dispassionately analyze what I see, not shout platitudes, like "Rodney is the man" (even though I agree with that one). We are here to talk football, right? Maybe you should go where you belong...to the Jests board.
