    Chris Clark is just flat out garbage. I'm convinced I'd make a better NFL offensive lineman than him, and I weigh less than a linebacker and haven't played since high school.

    what Bob doesn't seem to understand is it makes no sense trying to FIX the same beat up dust buster over and over again with spare parts.

    Cushing was AWFUL yesterday, not that everyone else was much better.

    He gave up on that Landry circus TD catch and run twice, once thinking Landry was just going to scamper out of bounds (Cush was taking a terrible angle to begin with) and then he loafed down field only to dive at him at the goal line.

    Yeah that loafing was annoying. And he only was able to dive for a missed tackle because Landry cut back inside to avoid someone else. So he was there but only by luck and even still he was too slow and lazy.

    This is going to sound like irrational hyperbole because of our history at the safety position, but I'm going to say that Rahim Moore is quite possibly the worst safety in the history of this franchise.

    Only reason we're not hearing more about how bad he SUCKS is because everyone else on the defense sucks too.

    I don't think I've ever seen an NFL safety try so hard to avoid contact at all costs.

    3 - 4
    4 - 3

    Our linebackers are garbage
    The Weakest part of the defense ,. . .. which is suppose to be the heart of the defense

    Do they realize that they play better in the second half because it's against this stringers?

    Never heard that this was part of his contract. If so, dumb for McNair to give this to a rookie HC. Even dumber to keep paying Rick Smith what he makes.

    I don't think they realize a lot of things. I mean they are still trying to figure out how to "play better".

    I knew they would score in the second half and that they would use that as proof that they just need to get off to a better start.

    Anyways, my brother and I were laughing after the pick 6. It was just a silly half.
