Default 27 and 0...

27 times is the number of times Rivers dropped back to pass.

0 is the number of times a Patriot player touched him.

Manning, Cutler, Farve and others are licking their chops.

Yet people continue to focus on Cassel's short comings.
I think that the defense is a much bigger area of concern right now.

I had hoped when Brady went down that we might win low scoring games.

Not with this defense. Our front 7 did not touch Rivers last night

The offense does not get a pass. It's pretty horrendous!

It drove me crazy all night. We didn't even touch the guy, NOT ONCE. Unbelievable. What happened to that great Patriots defense? Is it a thing of the past? I still can't believe that these guys can't play better than that.

The style of defense is not working anymore, hold your ground and hope for an INT only works for Favre and O'Sullivan, a good QB tears up our D every time. Lets face it, Brady was the whole team, he kept the D off the field and well rested, now the D is being exposed because the Offense isn't all world anymore.

NO the offense wasn't good, but the defensive performance that I've seen so far this season, has been very disappointing. I expected much more from them. ESPECIALLY, with a healthy Seymour.

Many want to talk about Cassel.

I want to talk about our front 7. Many have the Patriots front 7 rated as one of the best in the league.

3 - 4, 4 - 3, it did not matter. We could not get anywhere near Rivers.

And where is Capers in this? Why no pressure from Merriweather, Harrison or Sanders?

the blitzes were very bland. It gave the appearance that the Charger oline dominated the entire game, which was the case but I can't even recall a hurry. The Oline was ready for everything the Pat D threw at the Oline, period. So mentally the Chargers dominated, and when you have the mental aspect and KNOW where the blitz is coming from then you dominate physically.

interesting stat

rivers is #1 in the nfl in qb rating, even though he's been sacked 8 times

cutler is #11 in rating, having only been sacked twice

twice!

man......that is nuts
