    nope. we gave up 80 yards to one of the best backs in the league and 30 of those yards came on one run.

    No, our defense is one of the best in the NFL. Our defensive line is solid and a running back has a hard time getting through them. If they are lucky and quick enough to get through the D-line, then they have to face our linebackers and the safeties also come in to help.

    Vulnerable to the occasional big run....but who isn't?

    AD is the best RB in the game, and Slaton is proving to be a pretty decent threat himself. So, I'm not sweating it.

    18 carries for 80 yards isn't that great, especially when 30 of it came on one play. Without that, he was 17 for 50 the rest of the game.

    AP is going to break for big gains behind those blockers. You can't stop it completely, and we did it better than anyone else will.

    Hey, I saw Mini Me/Vern Troyer(?) at the game today, and also Tom Cruise, which was very bizarre and I wasn't drinking!

    No, seriously, Tom Cruise was at the game today. It was all the buzz in the luxury suites. Everyone thinks he's going to do another sports-type movie like Jerry McGuire. Also, Mini-Me was there, he was on the field during pre-game.
