Yea, that first half, we gave up like a record in passing yards.
They were gouging the D.
But...and I kept thinking....anytime you move the ball all over but don't score....it comes back to bite you, as we have seen ourselves a lot of times.
But even though they "bent" an awful lot, they didn't allow them to score much at all.
Oh, and I noticed Jarvis Jones as much in this game as others, and he wasn't even playing!
Harrison had a throw back game. Did you see him eye up that poor Brown and knock him into next week, causing the fumble and knocking his helmet off? That was vintage 92. Plus he had our only sack.
He has slowed down a step, and you notice it when he is pursuing down field. But the man still brings the lumber, big time. And it ain't no 2 x 4, my man is bringing in that 4 x 4 stud. WACK!
This D has become what I thought it might: shows it's youth and gives up some long plays, but is scrappy and has some "rough riders" to make up for it.
When Ben comes back, the D will be plenty good enough.
I still like Cockrell. Blake blew some plays but also delivered some good hits. Moats had a few plays. Golden seems pretty solid.
D is work in progress, but it seems to be progressing. This is a better D than what we would have if LeBeau was still DC. I fully believe that.
Out with the ring kissing, paying homage to vets. In with a young pack of wild dogs.
