That didn't take long. Can't tell which looked worse, our defense on that first drive or Carolina's defense all day vs ECU.

Poor tackling and holes bigger than swiss cheese.

...and this not going under center thing is getting old REALLY fast! I've not understood it for years, and nothing in my understanding of football can explain why you aren't up in there on the 1 when handing it to the running back off blocks.

Luckily the D woke up after getting punched in the mouth on the first drive.

Secondary is awful. Can nobody tackle or cover?

Our pass coverage is way too soft. WRs are wide open every time.

Being a bad football team is not much fun. Hopefully our players/coaches will wake up soon!

5 penalties on the Apps in just over a quarter. We look very unprepared.

The secondary blows coverages too frequently, but our offensive game management is what's going to give us the L. That red zone possession was inexcusable.

As I mentioned the other week when people got all pissy. Very good chance we loose by 2-3 touchdowns against GS.

I thought we'd have instant defensive improvement with Woody but I'm surely questioning if he and the 3-4 are the right fit.

14 0 USM Ugly! Not too late yet, but one more score is a nail in the coffin. Need to come back strong and NOW!
