My thoughts on the game last night

[PhillyChiefFan]

Nice write up Flopnuts.

Things I took away from last night:
1. The obvious ones, penalties and drops killed them.
2. Zero pass rush. I realize Denver's line is good, but not even a SACK? When they KNEW that that's how you stop Manning?!? The defensive pressure on opposing QB's has been on the decline in the last several weeks, but this was pathetic. Manning's averaging 2.7 seconds from snap to throw, but I can only think of 1 pressure when Houston bullrushed his blocker.
3. Alex Smith played well, he took a bonehead sack to take us out of FG range, but I definitely think had he had some help from his WRs/RBs in the passing game, the game would have been closer. McCluster's circus catch on the sideline was awesome though.
4. IMO WR is the top priority this offseason.

I'm not as upset today as I have been in the past, perhaps it's because I believe in Reid and Dorsey and I think they will bring this team back to glory. I hope Reid and Sutton light a fire under the passrushers collective ass for SD and I hope they come out pissed off and hungry.
