There's plenty of bad things to talk about from last nights game, but that doesn't equal broad general statements like us needing to form an offense. We're 6-3 people.

Although I'm surprised and pleased with our record, we have some deep issues offensively, and it ain't just ONE GAME. We have struggled for 4 weeks, three weeks against poor defenses.

We failed to score 20 points against the Rams who gave up 38 Philly. 41 NYG, 37 Seattle, 31 Buf, 34 Cards, and struggled against Cleveland and Detroit.

4 out of 9 games we have failed to score 20, and twice failed to score 10.

We are currently scoring less per game than we did in our dismal offense last year, while having the league's bloody leading rusher.

This is now the third straight year of struggling to score touchdowns, and no matter how many yards per game....no matter how few int's you throw, the game comes down to points. And we ain't scoring enough of them.

So no, this isn't about one game against a #1 defense. It's about an ugly pattern that has re-emerged over the past 4 straight games, and this bad movie we've watched enough of in 2006 and 2007.

I would like to see more of ey attacking downfield instead of the 5-10 yard plays and rely on him getting some YAC, although he is capable of doing that.

If Moss, CP, and Landry can rest up those injuries (along with Springs) and come out healthier, it will be a big deal for us in the near future.
