Lou Anarumo is actually improving his defensive unit which is more than I can say for Brian Callahan and Zac Taylor on the offensive side of the ball. Today against the Steelers I saw some creative stunts by the defensive line, some heads-up linebacker play from Germaine Pratt, and even an interception. It looked like Sam Hubbard was in on almost every play and combining him with Chase Young next year should make opposing running backs very nervous.
Allowing less than 20 points should lead to lots of wins -- but with an inept offense it's not going to happen.
You and I said it before FIK.
IF and ONLY IF you want to win andl give the offense the best chance these last 5 games, now that the defense seems to have a handle ... put Dalton in!!
Finley is NOT their future and they are going to have wait until next year to find a future QB!
NOW, if behind the scenes they are not TRYING to win, then status quo!
