Lost in the Irving lovefest, which Im not criticising for the record (love me some Irving), Mayowa had been VERY good for a strand of games in a row. I was very critical early on this year but wow, great rotational player

He played great. His arm got knicked but I'm pretty sure he returned late.

I agree. It seems that his benching/deactivation got the response the team was looking for. He's come on of late and the team has needed it.

He was getting off the ball and bending the corner very well this game. It set up an inside move off that speed rush and he got a hit on Winston nearly untouched. He's looked much improved of late. I guess that time inactive lit a fire.

Same here.

Benson Mayowa's improvement as a pass rusher has been obvious, but he's also playing the run so much better than early in the season.

The Dline played great.

With Randy Gregory, the projected starter at RDE, at home. Tank Lawrence, the projected starter at LDE, and Cedric Thornton, the projected starter at NT, both in street clothes for tonight's game.

And Charles Tapper, the rookie DE we hoped would serve as a rotational rusher, has missed the entire season on IR.

Good info. I forgot all about Thornton: how bad is his injury? TIA

He's listed with an ankle injury.

I looked for a few minutes this afternoon and didn't find anything more specific.

If it was the dreaded high ankle sprain, I'd expect more news on the injury.
