They looked MUCH better in the 2nd half.
Oh yeah, big time.
I edited my first post; they needed to get their feet under them, cohesively.
Pass rush was superb second half, after being ho-hum in the first half.

They just beat Andrew Luck on the road. And Luck looked good.
They brought in a new defensive coordinator to cause more turnovers. They forced two and ultimately those two won them the game.
They actually ran the ball effectively.
The offense made big plays
The offensive line looked good outside of RT.
The defensive line didn't allow Luck to throw downfield. Everything was short. Not every QB is going to be as good as Luck at doing that
They showed grit. Bad turnovers, bad penalties. And yet the stormed back. Loved seeing Dre on the sideline cheering the offense on.
Remember the opener last year?
Still don't think Hart was as bad as everyone is making him out to be.
He won't give up 2 sacks a game and he won't slip and fall on every sack either (I know, the first one he didn't slip).
