On the downside, what happened to Doughty? He's not our best cover guy, but I didn't think he was our worst until today. And Rabach was a freaking matador and got owned by Ratliff all day.
I'd say Trent Williams is a complete star in the making. Talk about being babtized by fire.
WE BEAT DALLAS, BABY! Hail, Hail, Hail, Hail.

We held Dallas to 7 in the first game last year too(and lost), I credit Haslett not for the defense (we were good last year) but for the aggressive mindset, the turnover, and Defensive TD's.
TW held his own, and we can be thankful we got him!
