Bigger disappointment?

[Schneed10]

We lost this game in the trenches. On both sides of the ball, really. But more so on defense. Griffin and Salave'a were dominated by Hutchinson and Birk. We didn't hear our DTs' names called all night long.

Not enough people gave enough credit to the Vikings going into this game. That line is fierce. Griffin and Salave'a couldn't hold up at the point of attack. In the beginning of the game the LBs were filling well enough to make up for it and keep Chester Taylor mostly in check. But as the game wore on, we got tired and got pounded as the Vikes marched down and made it 19-16.

Coverage was a pretty big problem too. We got lucky that Troy Williamson didn't burn us for 150 receiving yards. He dropped a lot of balls where he was wide open.
