Was the Defense Really Good Versus the Texans?

I really think Vigil and Willis are playing great so far.

My big issue is with Shawn Williams. He consistently gets our own players hurt because he always tries to make massive hits, and never goes for a tackle. No need to try and lay the boom on Hopkins when Pac already has him, just help him get Hopkins down.

Overall, this defense coupled with a DECENT offense would be 2-0. No problem.

One could argue that if we had Zeitler, Whitworth, and Mangold that we'd be 2-0. Or maybe even Whitworth and Mangold.
