After that 4 game losing streak, this season turned out pretty darn good.
The Cowboys win is what I will remember most.
But this dismal defense... I'm done with it, people need to be fired. I'm tired of the certainty that they will fold. That's why I didn't need to watch the second half. Years of evidence that this defense will offer no resistance against playoff level offense.
Hell, we only won the Dallas game because our D let the cowboys drive down the field at breakneck speed to give Rodgers more time.
The Kaepernik game, Arizona "more TDs than incompletions", Seattle collapse.. it's gone on far too long.
Is our offense perfect? No, but they shouldn't need to be perfect just to keep up.

I had a post a few years ago about Thompson's failure to replace the players we've lost from those 2010/11 seasons, and it has only gotten worse since.
Raji, Jenkins, Pickett - Mike D is the only notable player we've had on that line since.. lots of busts.
Nick Collins, Woodson - hard to replace all-world talent.. but aside from an un-spectacular Burnett/HHCD.. we've had horrid play.
Clay Matthews- when he's not injured, or being wasted for years at ILB, he's ok, hardly the elite player he was projecting to be 6 years ago.
ILB- still sucks, but at least Hawk was durable.
(Other OLB) - has been a rotation of bad jokes until Peppers, who has been really expensive for a just solid player.
