[MTK]

Offense: A

-Campbell's quick growth in the offense is a big surprise to me. I thought we would be waiting until midseason before he really started to take off. After the rough start in NY he's been everything we hoped he would be and then some.

-Moss is back to his 2005 form and here's a scary thought... he might be even better than he was back then. He's developed a nice chemistry with JC and that relationship should only continue to grow. Moss is playing with a serious chip on his shoulders it seems.

-Portis simply wore out Dallas and he seems to be just hitting his stride.

-Randle El and Cooley have been solid compliments to Moss and both are on pace for nearly 70 catches each.

-The OL has been very solid.

Defense: B+

-The secondary has done an amazing job the past 3 weeks in limiting some pretty high powered attacks. Yeah Romo threw for over 300 but most of that was in catch up mode. I like that Blache plays aggressive with the corners and we're not seeing the big cushions that GW played with last year. Blache is not as aggressive or inventive as far as blitz packages go, but it's hard to argue with the overall results so far.

-I'm starting to become a Horton believer. That pick yesterday was a great play on his part and tells me more about him than the 2 previous picks he had off tipped balls.

-Landry might not be getting the highlight reel plays, but he is quietly having a big year and has filled the big shoes of Sean Taylor quite well. His range gives the secondary alot of flexibility as far as disguising coverages goes.

-Rockly and Rogers are both officially back and may be better than ever. I'm still amazed at their quick progress in coming off major knee surgeries.

Special Teams: B

-Suisham nailed all 4 kicks yesterday and we needed them all. He's now 8/11 on the year. Brooks was very shaky early on as we know but he seems to be settling in. The punt return game has been pretty mediocre, but Rock has done a nice job on kicks.

Coaching: A

-What else can you say about Zorn? The hiring process that brought him to the head coach position was curious at best, but results are what matters and right now nobody can argue with the job he's done so far.

-The team is loose and plays their best ball late in the game. I attribute that to two things. #1, Zorn's aggressive style and loose attitude. I think under Gibbs he was so tight and tense at times and the team fed off that, and I think at times they felt the added pressure. With Zorn they are feeding off his looser attitude and they are just playing ball and not worrying about losing. In this league you have to play to win, and Zorn definitely brings that to the table while too often under Gibbs he was too conservative. I love Gibbs but the contrast between him and Zorn is so obvious now. #2, the rough training camp has this team in great shape and they aren't wearing down at the end of games.
