oline, very much including Jansen and Samuels. a 2nd year guy made utter fools of them Sunday, and anyone who said Portis needs to step up can just look straight at the entire oline for the lack of big running production.

dline, i'm starting to think the reason our running defense was so good is because they stay right where they are. save Griffin, they hardly ever go into the backfield for the remote possibility of creating a pass rush. well, teams have figured out to beat that, run AROUND them to the outside. and it's what beat us these last two games (i'm including that Holmes screen pass).

everyone on the D needs to revisit tackling, they magically forgot how when they were all so good before.
