I'm gonna try to keep my hopes up

This is getting harder and harder to write every week lol. *munches on chocolate ice cream mixed with beer and anti-depressants* but i'm gonna try and forget about this one *looks for other drugs that may cause memory loss* that was ugly in the 2nd half. it was not our defenses fault (though that run defense is looking worn down, the nickel defense is getting owned by 3 WR formations) but how badly do we need kyle orton now? this is why mcdaniels let cutler go, to run his system, he needs someone who can be smart with the ball, not someone with an amazing arm and kyle orton has certainly showed he can throw the ball all over the field and fit it into really tight spaces.

This game was not on the defense, it was not on the coaches, it was on the fact that our STARTING QB got hurt in an awful looking run and our Backup QB was not up to the task of filling in for him.

we have to forget about this game cause san diego is coming next week and you know if we win that game, all will be forgiven and forgotten :) such is the way of nfl football.

try to keep your heads up, take the taunting that you're gonna get from everyone and stay positive (very hard i know)

if its any reconciliation, we're on a 3 game losing streak and still in line to get a first round bye if the season ended today :) gotta keep fighting gotta keep fighting.

We. Are. Six. And. Three. :)

GO BRONCOS!! (go eagles!!)

Really? Blame it all on the Backup QB?

Up 17-14 at half on a 2-6 team that hangs on the verge of firing its coach every week…and it is the Backup QB’s fault?

I will agree that KO was having by far his best game as a starter before he went down, but those 2 long balls to Bmarsh were total F-ups by the defense. Take those 2 plays for 110 yards and 2tds away and where exactly were we at the half?

I am admittedly a KO skeptic, and it is nice to see that he can hit a reciever down field when there isn’t a defender with 10 yards…but that is a far cry from being able to put it anywhere on the field in tight spaces. Watching Manning and Brady last night reminded me what an offense can look like with a good QB (okay, great QB). It isn’t the 30-40 yard pass that I miss…it is the tight 15-20 yarder that hits the reciever in stride and opens him up for big YAC’s.

KO is getting better, the D needs to re-focus and Moreno seems to be hitting stride. We can still make the playoffs, so buckle up and ride it out.
