The 3rd down stats on both sides of the ball is especially encouraging.

We just need to finish our drives more effectively (this has been a problem throughout Gibbs 2--gotta get better). Plus, we need to start winning the TO battle. Watching other games this week, you see how much easier that makes things for a team. Short fields, defensive TOs and big momentum shifts all come with winning that battle.

Gotta improve the pass D as well--I know that GW is a "stop the run first" guy (and I'm all for that)--but against the good QBs like McNabb that's going to be a problem. We've got the DBs to blitz more this year--wonder if GW is a bit gun-shy after last years big-play troubles?
