Thread: I'm here to eat my crow.

I'm not panicking....yet. They are still 7-3. But they were exposed last night BIG TIME. They are not an elite team. At least not right now. But the NFL is strange nowadays. The best teams at the end of the year aren't necessarily the best teams at the beginning or middle of the season. There is still time to improve and adapt. But I have little confidence in Tice to figure out how to gameplan around the glaring deficiencies on the offensive line.

I said after the TN game that they can't count on 5 turnovers a game. Those are gifts that come when the other team screws up (usually). "Forcing turnovers" is not a long term strategy to win a championship.

I don't know. I think that is a solid strategy. I don't think either Lovie OR Tice (as big a bonehead as he is) think that turnovers are how you win championships, but I do think they are PART of the arsenal that a good team has to win championships. I am fine with them stressing turnovers. I don't think they are stressing turnovers to the detriment of solid game play. I think we just don't have the talent on the OL, QB is becoming questionable and we don't have an OC that knows how to put together a game plan or make adjustments.
