I don't care about the history. Expecting more from a team simply because past teams have let you down is a little absurd.
But yeah, there was plenty to criticize yesterday. And there are plenty of flaws on this team. But they're down to what, 3 of their original front 7? Even with Houston back? Not surprising that the D isn't as solid as it's been in recent yrs.
And while Alex and Andy deserve a share of the criticism (especially Andy yesterday--Jesus), why does no one EVER talk about the run game? Pretty difficult for a QB to keep a consistent rhythm, utilize play action, etc when you have NO run game. The backs must have about a 10% conversion rate on 3rd and 4th and short this year and no one puts any blame on them or the pitiful blocking.
