Much needed thread.
2. Sam Shields. Terrific play tonight. In addition to his coverage, I recall a play in the 4th Q. where he ran across from his side to the other and tackled Lynch for like a 2 yard gain. I honestly do not think I have seen Shields play as well as he did tonight.
3. Ryan Pickett. Tremendous in stuffing the run tonight. Saw him hold the point and be involved in some tackles.
4. McCarthy's adjustments. No excuse for why it took him so long, but boy did it work wonders.
5. DB Coverage. Second week in a row - outside of mix-up on Seattle's first TD - where we did not have glaring lapses in coverage. After last year, that is one big positive.
I totally agree with Porky... this defense is showing itself to have the ingredients to be quite good.
