With experience David and Whaley will make the right adjustments:

Considering they had no film as a defense to prepare with, and David had about five minutes to take a position of leadership, 10 points given up is not the end of the world. He played fast, physical, and tackled well. The mental part will come in time. Hopefully sooner than later, though.

Agree on all points. Eckler and his crew will be putting in overtime the next few weeks.

Still would like to see a better push by the DL next game.

I was really impressed with the way David played, but I hope we can get Compton back soon, preferably before we travel to Washington.

losing Fish and Compton took a lot of solid, disciplined play out of our backers.

Does anyone have an idea how long Compton's out?
