I guess our run defense is still great without him. How's he doing over an New Orleans

Last I heard he tweaked his MCL.

yep, felt it would still be 'above average', but right now its outstanding. also thought the transition to Bowman would hurt early on, but quite the opposite.

and we've played against some running backs that are hard to tackle but we have been able to stop them. Man our run defense is the best "bar none"

I was more concerned about the loss of Manny hurting our Run D, but that hasn't turned out to be the case either.

Manny's coverage is what I worried about, ala Witten...

I didn't want to say anything, because I'm worried about jinxing it- but Soap, McDonald, and Smith have been solid so far (knock on wood).

I'm loving the run d too, can't complain....

agreed.

good defense starts with stopping the run, its kept us in games for sure. i know it hurts to see passes completed against us, but still rather they not run over and thru us.
