Like others said, what both Seau and Colvin are doing are admirable. Keep in mind that they've been with the team less than 2 weeks, so essentially this is their "training" camp. Hopefully they shake off some rust if they Patriots make the playoffs.

I thought Colvin looked decent. I thought Seau looked a few steps behind but I don't think this is his having lost a step as much as him having had offseason surgery, no TC, and no Preseason. Don't forget Colvin had training camp.

All in all it is hard to say anyone did bad as we were in auto pilot after getting up 3 scores

I thought Colvin was solid considering the guy has only played 1.5 games. i thought he made big strides from the seattle game to this past week.

I think we should sign him for next year.

Everyone on that defense sucks balls (excluding D-Line and Mayo). You know your defense sucks when you give up 330+ yards and 26 points to the RAIDERS! Lots of additions need to be made in the offseason.

And you could do better? Being a JAG NFL player is still an amazing athletic feat, especially when there's some added degree of difficulty like youth, age, or rust.

Excluding the four guys you named, exactly TWO of the other starters (Hobbs, Vrabel) was a starter at the beginning of the season.

5 replacement starters. 6 when Warren sits. Some of the backups have been replaced too.

They both knew what to do - but they are slow doing it.

Seau looks good, but just like everyone else said. He's fine inside. But in space when he has to chase a guy down or cover a TE, he's not one to be depended on. Again, for a guy as old as he is playing his 2nd game I'm happy with his play for him.

Colvin on the other hand looked alright himself. Didn't notice him doing anything particularly wrong, although he JUST missed a sack because he didn't grab enough jersey. Other than that, solid for a guy who just signed.


Defense still just looks embarrasing.

"troll, go away" is what someone wrote on my reputation. Who wants to man up and say who did it? Another person gets offended because I said the defense isn't any good. Even when they were healthy, they weren't any good.

I'm guessing it's Fencer.
