Sad

We just let an average team post a fortyburger on us in our house.

That cements us as decidedly subaverage. Just like our record.

Hasselbeck didn't have a great game. As he did late last year, he was pressing, as if the entire weight of the offense rested on his shoulders. Because it basically does, in the absence of a credible running attack. He made several brilliant plays, but threw two picks and was spared from another only through the magic of an instant replay challenge.

The special teams played well, blocking a field goal and returning a blocked punt for a touchdown.

But our defense has emerged as a real liability. Our makeshift defensive line can't stuff the run or pressure the quarterback, and our secondary failed to shut down a passing attack that can boast only one really good receiver.

Can we even talk about a home field advantage anymore?
