Defense had a bad game, but the offense looked vastly improved from the 1st game.
Mixon is running hard and not falling down at first contact.
Seems we once again have a punt returner who can take it to the house. He said he spent the week watching film of PacMan returning punts. Yea Ivy League!!
The line, for the most part, seems to be giving more time.
We are out of Division play for a couple of weeks and can even out the schedule. And, we can still split with Baltimore and Cleveland, and possibly sweep Pissburgh.

I agree, there are some positives.

Mixon averaging 4.4 YPC.
OL pass protection does seem to be better (still wanna see improvement from Volson and Williams though).
DB performance has been solid.
Charlie Jones is doing well as a returner. You can see the explosiveness that we didn't see with Trent Taylor.
