Happy that we no longer have Jerry Azzinaro as D Coordinator. We playex solid defense for most of the game even with our limitations.

The two areas that worry me the most with this team are the OL and the pass defense, and both played much better than expected yesterday. The run game is typically solid but DTR had a good number of clean pockets with his straight drops and he was slicing and dicing the defense with that sort of time. That kid has really come of age (yes, age at 22 is a funny term ;-) ) That OL really kept the offense clicking all night long and they were the difference when the Bruins needed to eat the last 4 minutes of the game for the W. Also, the pass defense was very good after the first drive until the early 4th when I think the calls got pretty conservative. But they did more than enough in that time with pressures, 2 sacks, and 2 picks to cause a lot of Penix performance issues and let the Bruins get out to a big lead which they were able to milk in the end. DTR and Zach and Bobo deserve lots of praise, but this was really a great team performance by everyone.
