Your analysis is flawed. You are simply starting the odds are similar between making the FG and converting the 1ST down. What you forgot is the odds to score points after the conversion are still there. Belichick is the only pro coach I know that subscribes to your theory. He has Tom Brady. When you dont take the points, you're kicking your defense in the nuts...

X2...

Yet, another side to Cutler you'll never see on ESPN.

This one hurts, but hopefully the huge infusion of speed will provide a spark...

Hypocrisy at its finest. Have a great time at the game.

I competely agree with your concerns, but truly believe an off season to regain old form will be a bonus for him. Emery has his work cut out doesn't he?

That's not how I read it. 3rd worst pass blocker and 3rd best run blocker. Give him another year to get his body right and the pass blocking will be better. Give the kid time.

Oh, my bad. Talking about our Webb. Just that he's 6'8" 355 and plays soft as a teddy bear. Kreutz would be on his ass all week to maul Allen. Just wishful thinking.

That's why we miss Kreutz. He would educate Mr Webb on the nuances required to insure people think twice about cheap shotting our players...

Read the whole post please...

We need to definately give Tice credit. As much as we've all ripped him for his failures, we must own his successes to be impartial. They better own up on the OL talent though.

Amen! While I admire Lovie and Co's optimism regarding players and their abilities, there seem to be a bit of arogance that goes with it. Do they really continually think they know something the rest of the NFL world doesn't?

Wow, you've identified what we've been discussing all week...lol

Though I believe no QB could have helped us in that game, he is the type I believe we should have as backup. You know, someone who can run for his life...

Absolutely not. What's left according to my list? A = OL and coaching. Was just trying to make a point by process of elimination. Funny thing is, that would have been my answer 5 years ago. My contention has always been, you never know what you have on offense with a bad OL and ineffective coaching...

Lucky, Check your math. Out of the top 20 tackles, 13 of them are left. Out of the 13, 9 were 1st rounders. That's 69% not 27.

You know Lovie and Tice said it was all good.

My question again? WHAT ELSE NEEDS FIXED ON OFFENSE??? Everything else has been addressed. It's down to QB, OL or staff.

I don't think Carimi is a bust yet. I'm convinced he's not recovered from his surgery yet. He looks 20-25 lbs light. That's often what happens when trying to heal something that doesn't heal fast enough. The best thing to do is always take weight off. Carimi needs to hit the weight room and the dinner table this off season. If he comes in that light in the ass again, he will bust.

Classic!

Worrying about backup QB is the least of our problems. What backup QB on earth could have done a damn thing last night?(maybe a kid who can run) Campbell sucked last week too. People lost their job last year because our backup plan was so horrible. Was it the backup plan or was it the OL was just F'n horrible? We need new recievers, check. Sign Forte and backup, check. Sign backup for Cutty, check? Sign 5 horrible TE's, check. Sign a bunch of STer's, check. What's left? OL... I disagreed to the above mentioned plan when it unfolded, with the exception of Bush. I'm hoping Emery isn't JA 2.0.

Their OL was terrible with Tebow because their were 10 men in the box. Good QB's get it down to seven or six. Cutler hovers around 7/8.

30 k for intentionally drilling a franchise qb and putting him out for a game or two is nothing compared to what we lose.

Good question. My answer is yes. Cutler has had time to hit other targets this year. Often, we armchair quarterbacks yell at the TV saying this guy or that guy is open. I've yelled that a lot this year. These are the things I expected to go away by now. That's why the Houston game was so key for our O. Looks like may be the GB game if Cutler misses SF.

How about tackle eligible? TE is no threat in our O anyway...
