I didn't get to see or hear the game since I was driving home from Tennesee, but I must say that a score of 36-0 still leaves me in disbelief. Not entirely sure what happened, but I'm inclined to think that Gibbs will turn around the offense. However, I'm still worried about the defense. I know Williams did great things with them last year and early this season, but they have worried me since the second half of the Seahawks game. Even their performance against SF, although solid, wasn't incredible. They shouldn't have given up that 72 yard touchdown run near the end of that game. Guess it kind of set the tone for Tiki Barber trampling all over us. Like I said, I'm not worried about the offense; this kind of thing has happened to Gibbs teams before (17-0 loss to the Giants in 1986 championship) and they bounced back. But the defense needs someone to light a fire under their asses or else we're in for a long season.
