    What a stupid reaction from Spangler, "Come on, get a smile on that face!" It was Lucas that had it right. The defense just got smoked again and had nothing to be excited about and here comes the DC telling his troops to be happy with a piss-poor performance.

    All the talk of bad D and how great the skill players are doing and I would like to give a shout out for the entire O line for the great push and outstanding job they're doing. Keep it up and kudos!

    When I read the article, I immediately thought of you LFR. Why wasn't Spangler pissed, his defense is ranked at the bottom of the barrel.

    Even though us "real" football fans aren't happy because of the shoddy defense, this team is still a lot of fun to watch. As long as we win....

    Yeah, if we wind up 14-0 and the D is still at the bottom, I guess we can say "Oh well....." :icon_wink:

    No need contemplate that scenario, but consider this one. IF (yes, I said "if") our defense continues unimproved, it will take fortunate circumstances for us to be 8-4. I would expect 7-5.

    Was Spangler a moron last year? I just don't think we the players. Schemes matter little when you don't have the players to run them.

    Ok, I'll back off from moron and say that every year that I've observed him he has been, at best, ineffective. Last year we had key players at key positions that individually created a large number of turnovers based on their individual abilities. But if you look at schemes and game-time adjustments, you get an entirely different picture; or at least I do.
