We can only hope. The defensive issues run deeper than Donatell though. This defense is old and slow.

One step at a time.
You’re right a lot of branches to prune will make it easier to chop the tree down

Rebuild the d and take lumps with experience

And turn the offense loose

Draft the UM center

I’d have played the sub
Bradbury was terrible

Any line that thinks Bradbury is immediate help is a line in trouble

Next year is going to be a tough one. Should've blown it up last offseason and we'd be one year closer to having a real chance.

Of course he’s sad
They made him semi famous for coming back in some games

He’s going to have his depressed voice a lot next year

Fire him already

Did he win one this year?

and did his defense even look competant?

Did they make a single adjustment all year or just continue to suck?

I am all for his dismissal

Of course.

Some speculating that they pushed the end of year news conference back a day to announce the dismissal.

Although I questioned the change to a 3-4 the moment I heard about it. It does not match our personnel. Hunter dropping back in coverage semi-regularly? Sad really...

Bengals had backup linemen and still kicked Buffalo

Romo was embarrassing; Openly rooting for something to happen for Buffalo

Refs tried to help a couple of times. Bengals stuffed it up their asses.

Vikes are done, time to sell.

Darrisaw is my only untouchable.

That was one of the most slanted officiated NFL games I have ever seen.

I made a point of watching every setup of the OL. Vikes were doing the exact same as Prince of the Titans. Is there a defined rule? Or just a gut feel? And why isn't it just called immediately and blown dead like false start? So fishy.

Were you watching the game with a former Twins Talk poster from Tennessee? Bad teams don't get calls and they were the most penalized team in the league going in.

A few things:

The Titans had a couple of questionable calls go against them, especially the Jefferson int call.

The formation calls were correct. By rule, the OT's helmet has to be even with the center's waist. OTs try to cheat back as much as they can. Prince was cheating back farther than the Vikings tackles. It couldn't have been more obvious on the TD pass that was called back.

I think the Addison personal foul is a defensible call. Addy was airborne and therefore a defenseless receiver..The defender left his feet to deliver the hit into a defenseless receiver.

In real time, it looks like head hunting. Refs can't use video to overturn that kind of call. So we got a break but hard to fault the refs on that one.
