I think you underestimated the loss of Antonio Pierce like the Redskin coaching staff did. Pierce was the key player in the defense last year. He related the plays to the defense and was given a lot of credit for his knowlege of the game. If Pierce's input was not essential then why did Barber mention it after the game?
Tell me how the 31st ranked defense all of a sudden plays a perfect shutout against a 2# offense unless they have an ingenius grasp of that teams playcalling?
Pierce went to an rival team in our division and stated in an article on Friday that he wanted to hurt the organization because he felt disrespected after a deal could not be agreed upon. So the Giants was a great way to accomplish that task. Pierce is not the first player in the NFL to play in the same division, however he was one of the most important components to the success of the defense. Remember he had 160 tackles last year.
