Points given up per game dropped by 6 total and almost 12%. Unfortunately it was still awful at 39.5 given up vs. 45.6

Rush defense went from 4.9 ypg to 3.98 ypg - huge jump and a solid #

Pass defense went from 9.4 yards per attempt to 8.1 yards per attempt - still anemic to say the least

Our points allowed per play improved by 20%+

Yes, we were still awful overall but at least the trend line is in the right direction.

Some reason for optimism that we will see a bigger jump in 2015:
- 2nd year in Kaufman's system
- 9 returning starters
- Influx of faster newcomers
- Looney on the DL
- Depth at LB and CB[/B]
