Boston and Durfee right now still proving the never trust the unstoppable practice hero reports. I feel like on that play stretching out could at least get you some yardage in a situation where every inch matters, setting up a better fourth down.
I didn't like how conservative they seemed to play it on some key third downs, throwing in front of the end zone and a couple times seemingly being okay with just setting up FGs and punts.

Durfee is one of the best players on the team and easily as good as anyone else on D
-
Saw some nice Durfee plays in run D but never noticed him in pass rush in a game where it was really need. I haven't rewatched though.

The question is, who is the other Edge who will step up? Wayne looked decent in the 2nd half and nearly had a sack. Jacob Lane flashed a little last year but I haven't seen him this year. Holtzclaw isn't that big and Heims is likely a back-up JAG. The Arizona transfers haven't shown up either.

UW's linebacker situation is disturbing. Even before he got hurt, Bruener hasn't played to the level I thought he would. Seems to be guessing a lot and missing opportunities to stuff runs at the line.

Looked like they were told to contain more than pursue
-
Mateer ripped off big scrambles in the first half when there was frequent blitzing. He didn't really have any in the second half.
-
This defense is more physical than any of the last 4 years, and most of the CP defenses.
-
You're just making shit up. How do you even measure "more physical".

People shit on Giles but if he gets that crossing route there is 100% chance he dives for that pylon
-
I think everyone has come around on Giles. He dropped some passes and looked slow even though he came from Michigan as a speedster in 2021 but he's really put it together. It's a good point that the route really seems like it would have been better for Giles anyway as he seems way more shifty in space and Boston is better as a jump ball guy with his length.
