yeah alot of passes were off the mark but he seemed to amkke good decisions on them anyways.

yeah we have been way too conservation again so far this year.

BAD - Sean Taylor's coverage for most of the game. While I still think Taylor has the potential to be a beast in the NFL, I have to be honest about the fact that he is nowhere near the neighborhood of Roy Williams, Ed Reed or even Mike Brown in terms of dominating a game. Not close.
you're out of your mind. Taylor's coverage was fine. He blew one coverage on a trick play where he actually slipped trying to get back. If you ever state that Taylor is not in the same class as MIke Brown I might have to poke my eye out after reading it again. Now Reed and Williams are the elite group and I'd say Taylor DID doiminate much the same way they do. He is right there with them in my mind.

BAD - Either Taylor Jacobs is a really, really unlucky guy, or this guy is made of paper mache. It seems that his after-the-catch celebration is to get in the fetal postition and suck his thumb. How much longer can we wait for the training room's "Customer of the Year" to make a play for us? Answer - not much longer...
no kidding.

Didn't hear Carlos Rogers name called all game either (although I saw him in the game at least). These guys are gamechangers, supposedly. We tallied NO sacks and NO turnovers. Did you see Roy Williams last night - he was everywhere. We need some of that. Getting our playmakers in the game will help. Don't worry, G-Williams will still have them playing like a team.
results baby are all that count. they bring the results each week. some turnovers would be nice though.

And that's fine. Let them talk. Do you know what will shut up the doubters? More winning. That's it. So let's not spend the next two weeks crying about how unfair the press is after our "big win" - let's just keep winning and smiling.
Both of those are good. I'd rather be underestimated.
