no turnovers - that's not our formula to win games - we dropped 4 interceptions today - our defence is not built to stifle other teams - it's built to give our offence extra possessions - im ok with the occasional bad defensive series as long as they make the big plays - but 2/3 sacks, 2/3 TFLs and no turnovers is not going to be successful moving forward

To answer your question candidly, he was suited up and on the field, but playing I'm not sure given how Gore did.

im gonna be really interested to see the snap counts of davis and pierce - we seemed to be in 1/2 dline sets for most of the game and im pretty sure it was almost entirely henry and williams - if we arent gonna get pressure we really need to make sure we stifle the run in our base package because a defence that cant stop the run and doesnt get pressure is not gonna create chances for the secondary to impact the game in a positive way for us

A win is a win, but Deion is really dissing us right now. Doesn’t think we stand a chance against KC

We took a big step back today in most peoples eyes.
Brandon Williams should give back of of his ridiculous contract. He played like terrence cody

i didnt like how our D acted like fools thinking they won the superbowl too. They played like dogshit against probably the least talented team in the NFL.

Can we clinch if both the Bills and Titans lose tomorrow or do we still need a win against the Bengals or help with a Bengals loss?

This postgame show is awful Deion is loving on every afc team but us... and he starts naming nfc teams that don’t have experience in the playoffs and saying they aren’t good but thinks we are a joke but besides the pats and the Steelers we may be the third most common team in the last 10 years in the playoffs lol

I would say but they only scored 16 points and that is not horrible but Gore ran all over us and we got little pressure and if it was not for the offense sustaining drives today and getting points on those drives we would have lost this game.

colts missed 2 field goals and basically only lost because they have no talent.

Why are there multiple comments dogging our defense for celebrating on a game-ending play? What would you have expected, for them to quietly walk off the field, holding their heads in their hands? I get it. Their running game fared better than we thought, we amassed little pressure in general, and we dropped multiple interceptions. I have our D/ST in both of my fantasy championships, so it's hurt me both ways. But they came through when it counted. A big sack to set up a long conversion attempt, and a big-time pass defense that sealed up the victory. We needed two wins down the stretch, and their last play sealed up one of them, and they celebrated accordingly. If you talked yourself into a corner by expecting nothing short of a blow out to such an extent that you can't even enjoy a win with far-reaching positive repercussions, that's a personal problem. But there's no need to criticize the players for being pleased with a victory.
