At the moment the only starter that I am a little nervous about there is Patterson. He really got blown by on that one run by Wolfe up the sideline and he wasnt up in run support as much as I would like to see, but that is b/c of the cover 3 that was being played. Also the reason we didnt see Jenkins in on a whole lot of tackles.

I thought Patterson played well. The way I interpreted things, the DB's hands were tied because of the coverages we were in. While there were some missed tackles, that definitely wasn't prevalent, and I thought Patterson did an excellent job in pursuit. Jenkins didn't really see a lot of action, IMO by design. The true test will obviously be Saturday, and we'll see how complicated things will get...I guarantee the "vanilla" won't be there...but again, the thing I liked the most was how well the DB's covered when they were in man. Gives me a lot of confidence...
