From what I heard, Mase and the studio guys said seperate things.  I didn't hear it, I was at the game, but a friend told me that the studio guys were gushing about Gray and Mase was hinting that he prefers Shortell.  
That said, I agree with you.  The D looked fantastic.  That isn't as bad of an offense as we made them look today.  Hageman and Wilhite looked great.  Hageman absolutely took over that 2nd quarter.  The entire D looked good.  
For me, one of the most notable differences was special teams and we didn't make silly mistakes.  
As far as the offense. . .I'd like to get a little more out of our running backs but I don't think we're going to look much better than we did today.
