re: It's early, but this may be what turns our defense around.

Probably.

But hell, last year our defense never looked "good."
There were times when we looked promising.

And we were never this energetic or good at tackling.

I thought we'd never learn fundamentals.

Maybe, but consider this: in the first two games, we have shown sound tackling (including tackling right when the receiver catches the ball), good alignment (guys are being caught out of position), and stout run defense. All good signs.

The one real weakness I have seen so far is the hurry up defense, but I expect that to be addressed.
