This isnt a playoff team...

Honey Badger is a great player, but still takes plays off. The D sucks as a whole. Where the **** is one great player out of 11? There’s no excuse for 11 starters to be this bad.

Gonna stay optimistic. At worst we just have to get past this season and get these shitty defense contracts off the books. But we've turned this thing around before.

And it's hard to get upset since most of those contracts were a huge part of winning a super bowl.

That’s a good perspective and I tend to agree with you. My point is, these players have outlived their usefulness to our defense. Next offseason should help a great deal in freeing up money and roster spots, but this year’s defense is hard to be enthusiastic about in my book. The D needs a major overhaul. Most of the players being trotted out there aren’t good enough and it shows. I expect Clark, Reed, Hitchens, and Sorensen to all be shown the door in the offseason, possibly even letting Honey Badger walk. Whatever it takes, but this need defense needs addressed.
