    If we learned nothing else, I think we have shown without much question where our most pressing need is in the draft and/or free agency. That is, if we are able to keep both Gross and Pep.

    I'm also frustrated watching Lucas get burned, even though he played better last night than in previous weeks.

    Every time you try and take a shot at me, you just end up making yourself look stupid. No offense has to prepare for Kemoeatu. He is not one of those defensive tackles that must be double-teamed, and thus frees up the linebackers. In fact, Ray Lewis used to bitch to the media about how the Ravens needed to get him someone better than Kemo because he couldn't occupy blockers (then we decided to ignore all that and pay him $5+ mil per season). The guy just isn't very good. He's big enough that you'd expect him to be good, but he isn't. Teams block him with one lineman and they usually do it very effectively.

    Agreed. We're soft with him, softer without him. Need an upgrade there, BAD.

    When Kemo is in there we are better against the run. The Giants have run over a lot of teams this year though. Do not panic yet.

    Since the bye week, every team has run for over 100 yards against us except for Tampa Bay.

    kemo is an average player-which is better than the rest of the guys weve got-most of their big plays though were to the outside alot of over pursuit as well as good blocking from the giants-too many missed tackles-failing to detect the shotgun draw pissed me off-alot of the problems on run d i think are mental right now
