Thompson has to find someone to compete for that position or teams like Detroit/Atlanta/New Orleans will simply pick apart the secondary in the playoffs.
Oh...and stat of the day...

I don't know. That Packer offense is so dynamic they may be able to simply outscore everyone. None of those teams has a particularly great defense either.
You could really tell Champ Bailey was missing in this game. I don't think it would've been a 26 point loss if he had played. Still, you can see the Denver defense has made huge strides from last year.
Orton...just baffling that he could play so well last season and now looks like the same player from the season before.
