OFFENSE Souhan's grade: b
For a night, Ponder to Carlson looked like Cunningham to Carter. Weird.
DEFENSE
Souhan's grade: b
Kevin Williams rallied this battered unit, and the pass rush won the game.
SPECIAL TEAMS
Souhan's grade: b
Walsh is starting to look like an All-Pro again, and Sherels was good on returns.
COACHING
Souhan's grade: b
Musgrave put Ponder in position to succeed, and Williams must have done something right in the second half.
