I just saw the highlights but I thought the defense played reasonably well. The offense gave the game away in the fourth quarter with the fumble return for a TD and the near pick six. 
Going into the season I thought the offense would be the strength of the team. Sure didn't turn out that way.

Those are my thoughts too.

The wide receivers cannot get separation.  The offensive line is porous.  We have no running backs.  The quarterback is not mobile.  A recipe for disaster after disaster.

My main question is--how the heck does the defense do as well as it does?
