Not sayin the line was perfect but to act like we are how Houston used to be with our QB getting killed each week is a stretch.
Just because 7 sacks happened in one game, doesn't necessarily mean they don't exist. Once again, I'm not saying Campbell is not to blame at all, but he's not the only reason they lost in the second half of the season. A lot of fans wanted for the team to pick up a lineman at #13 (me included), because a healthy/young line is the key to both the running and passing game.

As I said before, all we can do is wait and see what happens this upcoming season. I think the offense in general needs to contribute and help the team win. It shouldn't be up to the defense to carry games. Or let's hope that our defense is elite enough to carry the team (like Baltimore's). We can argue to death about JC here, but that's all we can do, nothing will be proven or unproven until the team takes the field.
