Every Year The Birds Have A Meltdown Like This - But They Respond Well

I have a simple personel move that would help. Put someone with some farging talent back to return kicks. How many touches did Westbrook get yesterday? 10? But no, we don't want to over-use him by letting him return kicks. F that. Stick his ass back there.

Fix the special teams and this situation gets whole lot better in a hurry.

Oh yeah, and run the ball and get some pressure on the QB.

Fixing special teams has to be a priority. It just plain sucks ass. Dallas had good field position all day, and ours sucked. Bruce Perry could do better on punts and kicks. God knows he couldn't be any worse.

It's not that easy, because the blocking sucks too, and the coverage sucks as well on the other side of ST. As for getting pass rush, well yea we need it, but how do we get it, when our DEs are playing like trash?

Pray that either Doogs or Cole can work their way up to starting at DE.

Reid seemed to suggest that he's thinking about Lito or Westbrook in the retur roles. He didn't come out and say it, but he hinted at it.

QuoteNot to pick nits but it was Mr. Monday Night that was benched after the Pittsburgh game. Sims took over his spot at Wil and Trotter stepped up to the Mike. Simoneau promptly got his ass injured which opened the door for Keith Adams and the rest seemed to be history. Too bad the Bullet is starting to loke more like a BB...

I betcha Simoneau gets his starting role back after the bye.

Good. At least one of them needs to start earning a paycheck.

Lito's the one with the $10m paycheck.
