Curious as to what's surpised you the most going into the season and to where this team is now? I'm sure most it would be the record, but other than that.

Mine is the fact that this team is able to accumulate such success and still not have that DYNAMIC go to game changing player. To me that's a good thing because this unit is so balanced that they don't really need that guy. I do expect someone to arise before seasons end and be that player we look at to change the whole scenario of a game in the snap of a finger.

I'm happy for these guys and look forward to continued success but I can't help but to wonder who will start being even greater.

Our turnover ratio and lack of penalties has been outrageous and is the main reason for our success.

I honestly didn't see that coming.

Jacob Phillips
Grant Delpit

Delpit flashed last year but he’s playing on another level.

Offense its obviously Burrow and Jefferson.

If I had to pick one this would be it. The coaching staff as a whole is head and shoulders above last year's staff.

Postitive is definitely the play of Justin Jefferson and Joe Burrows ability to manage the game.
Negative is hands down the offensive line play. I believe the O-Line is getting better with the exception of the LT spot.

Positive surprises:

1. The huge leap Delpit has taken.
2. J. Jefferson.
3. The O line's ability to hold things together (although not perfectly) despite injuries, suspension, and attrition.

Negative surprises:
1. Relative lack of D line depth when I thought we would be deep there.
2. Suspensions at key positions, costing depth.
3. Crowd leaving at halftime.
