I don't care what anyone says, our defense is an excellent defense. We can't keep going 3 and out and expect the defense to bail us out every time. With the addition of a solid #2 corner, we could be elite. Our problem has been that our alleged top ranked offense is not good. We have a very good 1-2 punch at RB. But how long before teams stack the box and make you throw.
***NEWSFLASH***
Our passing attack was not doing that great when Shaub and Andre were both healthy. Only 5 of the 10 games he played did he have a QB rating of 100+ or anything close to it. Equating to a 50/50, sometimey, every now and then, hot and cold, head scratching QB. Which we have grown to admire.
Shaub was nothing more than an overly hyped system guy. He has only had the minimal success that he's had because he has been here for so long. If you ask me TJ is a better QB than Shaub (stronger arm, mobile, and gets rid of the ball) If he had as many years in the system as Shaub, (and the benefit of playing with Andre for multiple games in a row) he could really move this offense.
Now that I got that off my mind...I really thought Kubiak would get TJ some quality reps heading into the playoffs. If he was going to PROTECT him so much, he should've just sat him for the last two games. See what the veterans can do.
After the first rushing TD, Kubiak seemed content with trying to win the game 7-0.
