I don't think we've "talked enough" about the D's "poor" performance, because it wasn't. The O crapped the bed.

I agree, the defense played well enough to win the game. Two sustained drives on the day by the offense, when there was excellent protection just isn't going to cut it. I will say that Zac is going to have to do something about that play calling, the odds of a two yard catch turning into a 63 yard run for TD over and over just aren't that great. The running game was working, they should have ran more and took more shots down field.
