But the defense and the coach look pretty awful today. Maybe there are more problems than I thought. You never want to draw too many conclusions from 1 game, but this might be a long season...

Last time I'm gonna say it. YOU CAN'T EXPECT YOUR DEFENSE TO PLAY WELL WHEN THEY ARE ON THE FIELD 80% OF THE TIME. FRUSTRATION AND FATIGUE.

Simpson is looking ok when Ponder gets the ball close to his hands where he can make a play.

What are the odds that Jared Allen has already decided that he's leaving after this season?
A successful coach needs a patient wife, loyal dog, and great quarterback - and not necessarily in that order.
