Yep, the sun did come up. A lot of blame to go around. Talk about not winning when you should have but look at the basics. We gave up 12 pts. in 8 min. I seen it before. Simply the D backs need to tackle, wrap their darn arms, instead of this highlight BS. So many yards after catch, with a bunch of missed tackles and runs for TD"s. Receivers just simply catch ball. Very, very catchable balls, Johnson,Polk, and Hippenhammer. They all should be heading to The American Greeting card store to get "I am sorry Cards." and send them to Trace. The ingredients for success, good pursuit angles, breakdown, WRAP YOUR ARMS, Look the ball into your hands, CATCH THE BALL. If we did this we would have got the "W." You know, THE BASICS.

And missed assignments. The OL is better, but needs an upgrade. 71 blocked no one on the last play.

The sh!tty tackling is happening in the NFL too. The talking heads blame it on the the reduced time the players can practice. The Steelers had those stupid robots they would tackle a few years back. Is it tha that difficult to teach tackling properly?
