Losing this year sucked but we were the surprise #6 seed playoff team. Noone really expected us to go far in the postseason.

Our D gave up 38 points that day. Other playoff D's have given up far more points at home than that...far, far more. Today's showing was far more embarrassing. At least we had a fucking shot in '03. Today's failed unit was so inept, it made the '03 defense look like the goddamned 2000 Ravens in comparison. Not getting a team to punt is one thing, but matching a 65 year old record for futility 1 year after having the #1 O against a historically bad defense is a whole 'nother ballgame. The degree of regression is staggering...staggering.
