Our offensive line play

In the next 2 games, if they can't block, they will fall to 4-3.  With blocking they can keep winning.

This.  

Biggest disappointment to me so far has been Cordy Glenn.  He is getting beat very consistently by speed rushers around the end, forcing Dalton to step into the pocket too quick during his reads.  Luckily the interior (center) position has been better, albeit not great, so he's not constantly stepping right back into something.

There is no doubt Dalton is making the O-line look much better than it is.  I'm hoping they get better as the year progresses.  If they don't our record will start deteriorating.  This week will be another test cause Pitt will bring it.
