2nd Half Defense

I understand our defense has struggled to close out games, although much of that could be attributed to the offenses lack of scoring points. Not giving up a touchdown for 13 quarters is impressive nonetheless and if the offensive continues to improve I think we could have another special year.

Beat me to the post...

Yep, I was going to say "One streak ended, another continues", in reference to Dalton's mini streak over the Bengals.

They were giving up a LOT of outside contain on running plays and that will need cleaned up, but it may have been by design.  They believe they have the speed at LB to make those plays, but focus on staying stout in the middle with Reader out.

Also, I think Tufele played a nice game.  Good to see him get some action.  Could end up being a real solid find.
