The official "our defense is horrible" thread

Yes, call me a "chicken little" blah, blah, blah. But maybe you can merge all similar threads that will be made in here and call it a day.

Anways I'm sorry, but that was the final straw today. 30 points to the WORST offense in the NFL? The worst offense in the NFL's backup quarterback? At home? SERIOUSLY? A stat came up during the game that the Bills were 0-40 in their last forty 3rd & 10+ attempts and what do you know, they convert right after that.

The defense impressed me once this season, the first half against the Bengals. Ever since then they have been pure trash. Allowing Mark Sanchez and Ryan Fitzpatrick led offenses to score 28 and 30 points respectively is scary.

Can this team make the playoffs? Yes, but I see our peak being 10-6 at best. This defense is just awful and we haven't even played a Top 10 quarterback yet.

Now go ahead, give this star one thread and try to tell me that our defense has performed well or how we'll magically get better (against better teams at that)

why our defense does suck, what is wrong with this thread...

Re: The official "our defense is horrible" thread

Honestly at this point after this game, I have finally accepted that the defense will not be any good and if they can somehow make a couple plays here and there, that will be sufficient to me. I have come to the realization that this team will have to win shootouts plain and simple. If the defense can somehow have a good game and force TOs then thats just gravy.

Out of 12 Quarters of football the offense has struggled just 2 quarters. In a shootout with the dolphins and jets, I'll take my chances with the Pats.

This was a good game for me, because it has lowered my expectations for the defense to basically nothing
