We came from behind and won 21-20!!! What, we didn't????? (I'm still in denial)

Smoot and Springs rule. Also, great effort to the entire D for holding GB to 3 points in the second half due to the failed on-sides kick...which I thought was a good gutsy call though (and yes, I'm ignoring the TD after the refs stole the game from us).

Ahman Green was held to 70 yards, at least 10-15 of which came after the bad call and INT that took the life out of us.

Great effort by Gardner. He really seems to have turned it around, and is becoming the clutch receiver he is supposed to be. Awesome on the high one he pulled down! Now if Brunell could actually throw the ball TO the receivers.....

Great effort by Royal on the 4th down conversion.

I liked the not-so-conservative play-calling....the end around early on, Gardner's pass, the on-sides kick, going for 4th down (considering the situation). The balls (and the calls) are still going the other way most of the time, unlike Gibbs first go-around, but it will come around....it HAS to!!!

Clinton only had 70 yards, but he also (should have) had about 60 yards receiving including a TD.

It was nice to see Jacobs getting more involved. He has the potential to evolve into a star in this league.

Morton is looking better and better each week with his returns....he seems to be "that close" to breaking one....hope he is alright.
