But yesterday we couldn't dominate the opposing cheerleaders if we tried. We do have the ability though. We showed glimpses of that against Denver and against New England. We're not quite as horrible as we look, but we will damn sure look that horrible on many occasions.
Rebuilding is like this. Young teams will go from retarted to respectable in a week. And back again. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if we came back in 2 weeks and put a hurting on the Titans. Very likely not, but it wouldn't surprise me. Teams in this position are completely unpredictable. They will break your heart bad if you're not prepared for it. Add in the fact that the coaches are inept and totally failing at random, and we have a swirling cauldron of shit to root for. And it will be this way until major changes are made. Just enjoy it for what it is.

Actually, it isn't baffling at all. If the D we are playing is horrible and can't stop the run it opens up our offense. If we can't run, we can't even get first downs and our D isn't strong enough to hold any team back for long, and can't get any real consistent pass rush going. The not being able to move the ball also makes it easier on the other teams O, because as long as they shut down the run, they don't have anything else to really fear.
