Mad respect for paying homage. Some points on your points.

[INDENT]- Less Upside - Special Teams. Stonehouse is great. But we had a delay on a punt in the first quarter, a lucky call that a PR didn't hit the towel of one of our players, and I have a suspicion that our kickers aren't going to be reliable over 40 yards. The latter is a guess so hope I'm wroing. Thank goodness the coach's kid made good long snaps though (that would be painful if it became an issue.)

- Donwside on the D in DART. Totally agree. Saw a lot of lack of discipline in the first 15 minutes across the board. Illegal formations galore, most of which were declined. Adding to that: going for two down 12 in the fourth quarter...WHY??? Kick the XP and be down a TD (2-pt conversion/FG.  Bad decision.[/INDENT]

[INDENT]- Sideways - The OL. Good to see there were no injuries, but pass blocking wasn't great. And surprised more guys didn't rotate in, notably the UNC/SC transfers.

Prediction: the lack of attendance for the home opener will be a debated topic this time next week. Hope I am wrong.
