Not defending Witzmann by any means. He looked pretty bad in that first half. But they eventually got it together and played like a cohesive unit.
They're still a good offensive line. Not the best, but pretty good. And we've still got Parker Ehinger as a wild card, too.
Basically, calm the **** down.

Seriously.
"Smith deserves criticism...." for what, exactly? He played well against the 2nd toughest front he'll play this year. If Hill doesn't just loose track of where he is on the field, Smith goes for right at 300 again (that was a PERFECT ball). The OL looked good for the most part and the Eagles were being aggressive with their blitzes.
DL and secondary held a damn good offense (good QB, improving Wr corps, very good TE and a guy like Sproles that can give anyone fits) to a single TD plus a garbage time score.
what the hell did people expect this week? That's a quality football team that will challenge for a playoff spot. That was a good win.
