the board has collectively hammered home the obvious thru two games..... my additional observations

* overall tackling is improved....we all focus on the missed tackles but there haven't been many

* Wilcox is sticking with the base 34 much more frequently than Aranda.... IMHO better DL play especially the NT is a big reason

* can't recall any 3 safety personnel groups, another Aranda favorite....lack of experience at safety is probably a reason ....

* Dooley is really solid... Musso gets my vote for most improved on defense

* Dietzen is VERY physical....Tauscher pointed this out during the radio broadcast ....but it seems like he's always dinged-up; if he stays healthy he's going to be a star

* need better blocking from the TE's..... Steffes isn't moving the pile & I think that's the reason Neuville is getting reps

* outside of Gags & Rosowski's kickoffs, I'm a bit disappointed in the specials.... should be much better especially since one of the few teams in the country with a dedicated special teams coach (Haering)
