Defense is getting avg to worse! When the season finished, they were ranked 28th! in the last 4 games.
That is a problem, especially against the Eagles and ANY AFC team, if we get that far.
They have to translate 2nd half success into first half. It's been a problem all season long.
A lot of our old team issues showed up this game and we still won by a ton!
- Poor 1st down offense
- Slow starts
- Poor Run defense
- Conservative play calling inside the RZ
- Stupid penalties
- Inaccurate QB/timing off
- Can't cover TE's esp. off the bootleg
- Give up the big play for the TD
- 10 point lead curse
- Drops (in the EZ)
This won't fly in the next round.
Why so much doom and gloom? We did what we had to do in the second half. As long as we do that, we will be hard to beat.
No doom here (see bold) but noting we haven't seen these old issues in 11 games. And noting this needs to be cleaned up for the next round or it might cost us our goal of winning #6.
dude...we saw all of it just a few games ago v Raiders
As long as we keep putting up 35+ points, we are going to be hard to beat.
Ultimately this! Just don't want to count on it in a shoot out. Let's call it first playoff game jitters to start.
got bad news for you...if we make the SB it is gonna be up to our offense
I still believe. But you're right...defense has some holes teams continue to expose.
Yeah I feel you NC, but the defense is still doing an outstanding job. They stepped up in the second half and made huge plays. Overall it's hard to keep up what they have been doing all season without seeing dips in performance, plus we played a team for the third time this season, so to see Seattle put up a fight can't be too surprising. But the awesome thing about our current run is the offense is firing on all cylinders, so as long as the defense keeps from going full Raiders, we should be in every remaining game we play.
Lets enjoy the ride! I feel better about this team than I did in 2019. I feels great to be relevant again
