QB play affects the defense, as well

Agreed. JJ's play was much improved. Looks like the 2 weeks of work had positive impact on his performance. He looked good running, rolling outand most of his passes in the first half looked on target. I did not see the 2nd half.

I did hear about his comments to the team before the game. (I may be a freshman but I will not let you down, paraphrased). looks like some leadership qualities emerging and maybe that showed on defense also.

Overall, I am encouraged.

Now, let's fill out our entire defensive coaching staff and move forward!

You were not encouraged by the QB play? I was in the 1st half. Wa sthe 2nd half that bad? COuldn't have been.
