loserlovers Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) I think those who say "oh we were 5-1 before and look what happened" are forgetting a huge difference. 1.Those were all wins against pathetic teams and we needed to come back in most of those games to barely win. Most scores were by running backs or weird plays..remember the morman to moorman connection...no? well anyways. That was when throwing to a running back was new and inventive, teams didnt yet realize that was all lil' trent could do. 2. We also dont have a QB who when we were 5-1 said "who knows...this could all come crashing down". This year we played a bad team at their crib and demolished them, then we beat a good team at home in comeback fashion when we should have been completely out of it. down 21-3!! edwards could rarely score more than 3. We are still healthy, parrish being out is almost a good thing since naamans back, and fitz is getting better every game. If we still have a weakness ill say it here and now...pass rush I think without evans we may still have some problems, the raiders never really played up close or pressed, if a team does, who will beat someone deep? Nelson? Chandler? Stevie is not fast...hes slippery and good but not fast. Now that easley and parrish are gone, it looks real dumb to have let our best stater go on purpose. ps, donald is also not fast. and even if he was, lets see him cath a few 70 yarders like old Mr. Evans made look so easy.
