Now before you Patrihaters start accusing us of something like running up the score, let me tell you: we did our best to lose this football game. The defense had holes like Swiss cheese in it. Our defenders have some serious bad weather issues (see: the Pittsburgh game). We need corners. Junior Seau and Roosevelt Colvin made their presence(s) felt today and it is just kind of sad when the old, rusty men are making themselves presence(s) on your team. Special teams allowed Oakland to return a kick-off for a touchdown (mind you, then Oakland did the exact same thing on the next play, which was nice of them). Bill threw the red flag on arguably silly plays that were upheld not once, but twice. The end of the game was likely the single longest 2:07 I have ever sat through.
We tried to lose, dammit, but we just couldn't do it. Oakland is seriously that bad.
Mind you, not many teams have lost to Oakland this year. The Jets do spring to mind...
We will have to do a lot better next week against the Cardinals or else Kurt Warner will tear up our secondary à la Chargers back in October. Have I mentioned that we need corners?
