I can't really complain about the job that Weeden is doing. He finished 7th in passer rating, his completion percentage held in the 63-64% range for the third straight year and while the interceptions were up slightly, they weren't terrible. He missed almost two full games and coupled with the loss of his favorite target Davone Bess, his overall numbers took a slight hit. I have confidence though that he is good enough to win a championship. Josh Gordon got paid and stepped up in Bess' absence and finally played a full 16 games. While his numbers were good, I think his ceiling is even higher.

Also very happy with the job that LSH did at RB. He missed six games but otherwise would have easily topped 1000 yards. He finished third in the NFL amongst qualifiers with his 5.13 ypc. When he went down, Leonard proved that while he can be a nice compliment, he can't carry the load.

The offense as a whole finished 11th in rushing, 10th in passing, 9th in total yards and 9th in scoring. Newly signed FB Anthony Sherman joined C Alex Mack and T Joe Thomas as second team All-Pros.

While the offense was consistent in both the pass and run games, the same can't be said for the defense. While the Run D was smothering, finishing 2nd in the league, the pass D ranked dead last. As a result, we finished 30th in total yards and 20th in points allowed. Quite the contrast with a year ago when the pass D was amongst the best in the league. Teams did attempt 100 more passes on us this year but that's not the only issue and I'm not quite sure what the problem was. Our pass rush dropped a bit and I think this impacted things as well.

With that said, 2nd year safety Liam Gray was spectacular and was named a 1st team All-Pro. Linebacker Jabaal Sheard finally played a full 16 games and for his efforts was named a 2nd team All-Pro.
