[QUOTE="net, post: 17748, member: 200"] Lets reverse the question: if any team is missing six starters on defense, are they going to look like the number one unit? If the backups are as good as the starters, wouldn't they be starters? Given the situation, both the #1 offense and #1 defense didn't do too bad. The special teams put the defense in horrible positions all night. Remember the net truism: field position is more important than having a great defense. If the opponents only need to go 30 yards to the endzone, they likely will get at least 3 points. So does the defense suck, or the special teams put them in a bad position? The problem with the special teams is that you can't put a unit together to practice each week because in training camp many players come and go. What needs to happen now is the team needs to get healthy, and Sherman has to make some cuts so the starting units play together. I wouldn't throw in the towel yet, folks. [/QUOTE]
