It took half the season to get there, but what we have seen these past few weeks I think is what my expectations were entering the season: defense keeping them in games, and an offense grinding it out - putting up enough points to win most games.

Yeah this is the Skins football we expected when the season began. Lean on the D and the O grinds out 1st downs. We just need that occassional splash play and this is about as well as we can execute. Had a big chunk play on that 4th and 1 that got called back.

Heinike was making a lot of throws near the LOS (as designed and asked of him) but that 4th and 9 throw to Deandre Carter was so clutch.

Stat wise Heinike had a pedestrian game but he balled out, stats can be deceiving. Wilson was trash but had a good box score.
