Carter and Brown were both great in terms of their tackling, and I think that was the biggest difference for the defense. As we all know, in recent years we've been exposed on the edges when our DBs - several of whom were very solid players - struggled to make tackles in space. Tonight, I can't recall that happening a single time.

I think Carter can still improve quite a bit in coverage (hardly a knock on the guy considering his youth), but his run support and tackling skills are excellent, and Terrence Brown is turning into an all-around excellent DB.
