Over the last 13 games(about 8 per game), all three of those issues seemed to be handled better. And I would expect this year, with a season under everyone's belt, both Griffin and the coaches will be more prepared for how to handle what hits he inevitably takes.

Well said . Throwing to our backs more and to TE's Davis and Reed should help keep Def's honest .
