Our run defense has actually been fairly solid.

almost all of that damage came in Week 1.

A meteoric rise, if I've ever seen one.

Gave up 37 to Atlanta. Only gave up 17 to Cleveland which was our average last year. Only gave up 9 today.

I has a dissapoint.
ok not really - once we have a few more games at home we'll be top 3-4, and with that and our new-found ability to run the ball, assusming we commit to it of course, we could be developing a nice formula to win games however we need to based on the conditions and the defenses we see for the back-end of the season.
That balance is something we havent seen since 09. Yall remember that year?

Although the Vikings offense sucks the red zone defense was encouraging. I was digging the 3 safety sets since it seemed like we didn't see much of that the first two games. I also liked seeing Byrd playing a bit of single high safety which is which is what I thought we brought him here for in the first place. I think the defense will come along the more the season goes on.
Also, I don't like the fact that they're trying to give Vaccaro a more "defined" role. I think he needs to be utilized in any position necessary. He played so well last year being a "rover".
