The Good: Defensive Line

Throughout most of the game, Dontari Poe doubled as a 340-pound wrecking ball. Being that he participated in all but three of 72 snaps, though, his presence was more noticeable in the first half.
Jaye Howard, Vance Walker, Kevin Vickerson and Poe combined for four quarterback hits, four hurries and 11 tackles on the day.
To no surprise, the defense was gashed by the ground game again, but that had far less to do with the front three and more to do with those behind them.
