The prevent at the end

[dgibbons]

Just wanted to point out two things. First, earlier in the game the two man rush with Stone and Taylor coming off the edges worked. Stone got a sack on the replayed 3rd and 21 after Brown got ejected. However it was Taylor and Fa’avae for those first few plays before the timeout. Did Stone get injured?

Second thing was Stone and Taylor were on the field at the same time in a pass rush package. Don’t recall seeing that before.

Stone had a great game. He was providing some pretty consistent pressure on Herbert. I didn't realize he wasn't in the last drive of the game.

Stone had to have some sort of injury. The announcers called out Fa’avae Fa’avae at the beginning of the drive. As I was processing (or yelling) our defensive strategy as the drive started I didn't realize Stone also wasn't on the field somewhere.

Just to point out something positive about the defense is that a great number of players participated in the game....something that wasn't seen during the worst performances.I think it's a good sign- those who really haven't contributed much participate and they red shirt those with limited playing time.
