    Now that we know that we got our ass kicked by the Titans, how about the Jets? Seemed like they just kick the **** out of the Bills and are looking for more blood.

    What do you this of this week?

    And by the way....MATT STEVENS AND OUR SECONDARY SUCKS!

    Matt Stevens definitely sucks azz, but I'm not ready to give up on the rest of the secondary...Coleman had a terrible game, in fact the entire D sucked Sunday...When is Glenn coming back...

    I think the Jets are still beatable as the Bills have been sucking the last couple of games...I hope we can rebound...

    The funny thing is you know its true when a national broadcast announcer singles you out and mentions a college prospect that you're team should consider drafting to replace you. (have to mention, Schweigert is an intriguing prospect).

    Of course our secondary (mainly Stevens) would not be exposed if the Texans could get some pressure on the QB. I am not just talking sacks, but just getting to the QB, knocking him around, and disrupting his timing. McNair is a mobile QB and proved too tough a test for the Texans to get to. But this week the Texans get a try at Vinny. Hopefully Peek and Clemons can get into Vinny's grill a few times.

    Our agree that the secondary is not that good but I think our Linebackers are overrated big time. In a 3-4 defense you must have fast and athletic LB's and the only one with decent speed is Wong and he is just an average player. Sharper and Foreman are great tacklers but not athletic enough to put heat on a QB and thats a must in a 3-4 system.

    Vinnie is not Air McNair.

    Texans win, go to 3-3.

    Even though the Texans lost bad, it's still counts as just one loss. We will rebound against the Jets.

    Exactly! I thought the whole idea of the 3-4 was to get pressure on the QB. If that's not happening (and it hasn't all year), what's the point?

    I'm glad the Jets finally won last week. If not, they would be extra hungry coming in on Sunday. Hopefully Stacy Mack will keep his damn mouth shut this week...

    I think our secondary can handle Santana Moss and Wayne Chrebet and Curtis Conway ... at least I hope so. Vinny needs to get rattled a few times early. Our D needs to step up in a big way after the Titans pounding.

    ESPN says Wayne Chrebet will not play Sunday. Injury to his shoulder, I think.

    Conway killed Coleman last year in S.D. hopefully Marcus can slow him down a bit Sunday. Santana Moss is the guy that really scares me with Glenn out of the game.

    Do you think they should go to more zone coverages against the Jets? I don't know, I'm just trying to think of ways to help revive our D. I just don't know if any of our corners have the speed to keep up with Moss, and Vinny is old, but still pretty accurate.

    That was a nice offensive possession for us.

    Everytime I see D. Davis play. I become more and more impressed. Also, nice job by the OL on that possesion.
