Other than the fourth quarter against Tampa, the group up front has done a tremendous job. If we don't miss those two tackles, we don't have a big run by a back.

Some people, their philosophy totally is penetrate. Offenses a lot of times get intimidated by those types of defenses and start throwing. But you watch penetrating defenses. When they have their bad games, it's against a team that has patience with (the run) and then they'll hit the big one.

There was progress made last week. We wouldn't have held up against the run as well as we did against McGahee if we didn't play well inside.

They have some good athletes. We've got to be as sharp as we were against Romulus.
