Trubs is going to have to put the defense on his back again.

The offense too. His run was the only thing that gained yardage.

I'm legit pissed at them for playing well early and giving me false hope, rather than being able to blissfully ignore the NFL like last year.

They had a great defensive performance for one quarter against a horrible backup, promptly lost due to bad tackling, had two more games where they couldn't score at all and won because of horrific opposing offenses, then beat up on a historically awful defense before regressing to the mean on offense and defense

Their whole defensive resurgence was keyed off one guy and as long as opposing offenses just throw the ball immediately there's not much he can do

Mack has been terrifying most of the year at least, although you probably won't figure that out watching him today.

I wasn't that convinced by them. Basically Mack was creating some magic on the line of scrimmage and the whole defense was feeding on the advantage that gave them. But it isn't sustainable especially if Mack isn't 100 percent

Yeah he straight tackled Wentz on a handoff. Hope an offensive lineman finds him looking the other way later.

Yeah, even the slight slowdown of Mack due to last week's ankle injury has exposed this line. The only other dude capable of getting penetration is Hicks. I'm disappointed in how mediocre Leonard Floyd has turned out.
