So i just drank 10 shots of Tequila and a bottle of wine tonight... I'm not bragging how much I drink, it's pretty bad honestly... but it's corona virus weird mode for me lately...
Then I had this weird thought in my head... are we actually allowing the most yards of any team in the entire league after 2 games?
I donno why it took me 20 drinks to realize that I should check this but sure enough... I was correct...

We are dead last in yards allowed per game in the entire league...
I don't think that's sustainable in terms of Super Bowl, our defense has to actually do stuff soon. We might have a season which 16-18 games are amazing but we will most likely lose one (season ending game) randomly if we continue to allow this much yardage.
I'm having a really fun time this season so far, don't get me wrong... but that stat is disturbing...
Just my 2 cents is if we have no QB pressure than you need to switch defensive scheme to be more aggressive vs passing games. We don't need so many defensive line men (on average) if they don't even do anything on passing plays?
Everything else I could say about this season so far is positive, so 99% of what is in my mind is we are doing awesome this is fun season but... I don't think that's helpful if anyone on their team happens to read this...
So I'll say my only other criticism...
Our time out usage is sorta bad in these 2 games... I think if we didn't waste any time outs the Patriots would of just straight up run out of time before getting to our 1 yard line... especially if we would of ran on that last 3rd and 1...
I don't have a problem we took a shot on our last offensive drive but, I think we should of done it on 2nd down if anything... or just run it 3 times make them use their last timeout...
I don't think Cam Newton is good enough to make this game so close if we didn't waste timeouts and if we managed the clock effectively late in the game, just my opinion. WE ALMOST THREW THE GAME... that's what I mean we can't continue to allow the most yards by opponents in the league we will eventually lose an important game and not win a super bowl if this continues...
Other than that i have nothing negative to say, this is a great team and fun to watch :snack:
