I'd hate to be in practice Wednesday if I was on Williams D but he needs to do 40 up-downs himself for that vanilla defense he called..

Wait, I don't understand how you put the loss on the defense and proceed to point out how the offense scored just 1 touchdown in 4 trips to the red zone. The defense definately needs improvement, but I would think you'd expect more than 16 points out of a Saunders, Portis, Moss, ARE, Cooley, Lloyd offense playing at home.
