92 Passing Yards Allowed and 8 Sacks

Okay, just got through "re-watching" the game without the surprises factor from last night...

And it still jumps out to me the way the defense and special teams just swarmed to the ball...

Yes we used our best LBer (Klein) to down a kick in coverage, but if that's what it takes to set the standard for that unit - make it so...

I watched again today because I was in and out during the game. I was in and out again today, so I'll watch again Wednesday, but I felt the same - wanted to check to see if I was just a little too giddy.

I know it was the Chargers, but like I said in another thread, jeesh our defense looked like a real defense...for a change...wouldn't have mattered to me if we were playing the NSU Demons, I just enjoyed watching us play with a purpose!

Can't wait until Wednesday when I can finally watch it!

Better than having a bad showing against one of the worst Olines in football. And better than having a bad backup QB pick apart the secondary.

The Texans will be a very good test ... even if it's pre season. They have another big receiver (#11 I believe), who made Malcolm Butler look like a rookie. I'll be keying in on Lattimore for sure.
