With 2 shut-outs

Star has definitely been a factor on defense but I don't believe it has much to do with anything record wise.

That Star shines bright and the QB can't see *****.

Is plaiyng Polynesian for being on the field? Kidding aside, he does make a difference and Ed Oliver plays much better next to him. It has a ripple effect on our dominant D.  But Star not playing is not the reason we lost to Pitt. Haak, a rusty Josh and bad OL are the main culprits.

part of it is a fresh lean and supple star, part of it is AJ, boogie, and groot have replaced shaq and that dude w the ginger beard and so on.  the whole mcd approach to the D is: secondary play ultra sound smart football, d line comes in waves so every is fresh and making an impact, and everyone on the pitch plays hard and flows to the ball.  it's clear on how he has built his teams that he wants at least one super star corner, but after that depth, breadth and quality on the DL is his bread and butter.

is it Star?  Is it Oliver playing better because Oliver looks a bit bigger and is winning his one on ones that he was not last year?  The DL also looked great yesterday when Star rotated out.  I'd say it's an overall improved group.  We don't have any real pro-bowl caliber players on the DL right now, but the group overall is solid.  That's the difference between now and last year, IMO.

Star is, and always has been very good.

 

But, let’s also not forget Brisket, Heineken, and Nills were the 3 QBs we faced.  Yes all intentional misspellings.  We cooked one, drove one to drink, and got nothing from the other.  
 

But again, Star matters a lot to this defense, always has.  We are a much better defense when he is on the field.
