I beg the questions: with all of our troubles on Defense and Offense where is the biggest weakness on either side?
Defense:
I see the biggest weakness in our defense being the Line. It was questionable in the preseason and it is still questionable now. Literally have little to no pass rush. Quarterbacks appear to be getting way to much time back there. Look at the second half of the vikings game. Why do you think Caulpepper tore us apart. Some blame can be put on the secondary but if we had put more pressure on him that would have made him force the ball. Our linebackering core is ok, not good but ok. They appear to be an issue when left of pass coverage. Not good.
Offense:
Running backs and O-line. Can't generate any yards, anywhere. Where was the running game from last year. Gone that's where it is. Injuries have riddled the offense and it seems that the only thing holding it together is Farve and Driver. With no running backs and down to only good receiver the offense should look interesting the next couple of weeks (interesting being not good). Drivers numbers will go down (and bretts) because he will be double teamed and teams will not respect the run and put both safeties back.
Any other analysis??
