  1. Or maybe we just need to get a better defense
    Oh wait, The Globe just loves a D-Line that produces no pressure or disruptions and old slow LB's

  1. billbell, on the first TD Hobbs was set up on the outside. Who had middle help? The second TD was a well thrown ball and a nice cut by a veteran receiver - Issac Bruce. I'm more concern with Cassell throwing the second pick, he needs to protect the ball better.

  1. karnak agreed on the first td....couldnt have any better coverage on the first td just a great throw and catch, but the second td was questionable, obvioulsly you never know each players responsibility but there was a good five yards between bruce and hobbs. I guess uyou take the good with the bad when it comes to hobbs. a ittle consistency would be nice.

  1. Karnak I may be crazy but if Cassel is going to throw a pick I'd rather it be a bomb than a 2 yard pass. Throwing the interception down to the 6 yard line was like punting away the ball the only difference is hanson can't pin the ball inside the 20.

    Im not advocating throwing interceptions but for some reason the 2nd one didn't really bother me.
