A game that our offense was actually moving down the field on drives but simply didn't have enough sustained drives - such as the fumble six and interception.
I think that having the oldest defense in the league showed a bit today. We really needed more speed from the LBs in dealing with Jackson, but more importantly, the short play action passes out to the RBs that Hightower was too slow in getting after. Speed really hurt us today! Second half defense started out well and we did stuff the run quite a few times. However, it's really just a matter of discipline, not having to stay on the field for penalties, paying attention to Jackson at all times, etc.
