OFFENSE

Souhan's grade: D

Offensive line overwhelmed, Teddy tentative, Peterson had key fumble. Only the last drive redeemed this unit.

DEFENSE

Souhan's grade: B

Kendricks was brilliant in coverage, the line rushed and contained Wilson, only a broken play beat them.

SPECIAL TEAMS

Souhan's grade: D

Blair Walsh came within one kick of justifying his big contract. His miss will be forever remembered.

COACHING

Souhan's grade: B

Zimmer had his team ready to play, ready for the cold, ready to beat a veteran team.
