5-1 is pretty good considering how the defense has been a work in progress. However, it seems to be getting better with Ron Brace and Brandon Deadrick returning from the PUP list to provide needed depth on the defensive line. Getting Mayo back will help, too.
The offense continues to be explosive and it is nice to see that they now have Ridley to add to the BenJarivs and Woodhead. Vereen might be displaced by Faulk's return; but, he may play a larger role in the years to come after Faulk retires. BTW, I see Faulk returning as a coach one day.
The one thing that concerns me about the offense is that it tends to leave the running game prematurely after a few good runs by the BenJarvis. Seems to me that if the OL and RBs are firing off the line, stay with it rather than jumping right back into shotgun formations.
