It's Not the Defense

The Raiders benched Carr against the Jets and had 3 points last time I checked. The Steelers had basically mostly 2nd string guys in and beat us with a 4th string QB. They had around 150 rushing yards too...with backup guys. One was plucked off of a practice squad this week. They also had a practice squad WR make plays against us.

Over the season? They've been terrible. We've given up by far the most 20+ yard plays in the NFL this year.

Seeing Webb and the other QB both on the ground while Washington scored on a 78 yard TD.

The Steelers beat us with a 4th string TD. Good defenses...don't like a 90 yard drive happen there.

I don't think he was saying they are good, just that they are showing improvement and signs of life, which is true. They are playing better then earlier in the season, and good enough to actually win a few games.
