What about that Defensive Line ?

The game is over. Now it is time to pick it apart.

I was very impressed with Langston Moore. He was getting very good penatration, and is really helping the run game.

Gabe Watson, Antonio Smith, Chike Okeafor, and B-Train all seemed very quick off the ball, and were all over the place.

Okeafor made a great tackle one-handed while being blocked backwards. I love the effort from guys like that. Watson is HUGE. I can't believe how well our front 7 played in the first half of this game. The linebackers, especially Calvin Pace, were playing some great defense today.

Pace should have had that sack though. He had him dead in his sights and broke down ....You gotta make those plays!

Agreed, but in pursuit and run defense, Pace was freaking spectacular. A lot better than I thought he'd be. He was sticking his nose in on just about every tackle in the first half.
