Leading tacklers: Dunbar, Harper...
Usually its Vilma, Harper.
Dunbar is doing very well replacing Vilma, for now, and Harper is consistently at the top of our play making list. Guys have to keep stepping it up. When players go down, the backups have to come in and perform at a high level and the other guys have to cover for them when needed.
Houston has a prety good offense, but I still think +20 is too many for any team that we play. 1 touchdown and 1 field goal per half, that's 20, or less, per game. That's what I would call good defense.

Don't know if it's miss assignments or mental errors or what but there are too many times we don't pick up a back coming out of the backfield. Dunbar did OK but he has to turn his head and look for the ball. Casey made a hell of a catch on the diving TD but if Dunbar would have looked back he could have knocked that ball down. He did it on one play early in the game when at the last second he looked and tipped the ball away he just needs to do it all the time.

Thanks for setting me straight.

And it should be noted that I don't think we've had an OLB that could cover that deep in about a freaking decade. Shanle would have been 5 yards behind him.

My concern of late has been Robinson, he seems a little lost a little too often at times in coverage.
