This win is on Henderson and, surprisingly, our defense. Giving up 20 to Tulsa is not shocking, but nursing a 7 point lead for most of the game was not fun to watch, which is entirely an offensive issue. Our defense was giving things up early but had a strong 2nd half including a clutch 3rd down sack and some big picks. They will not be as good as we want them to be this season, we know this, but perhaps the changes implemented could result in a reasonably okay defense toward the end of the season.
Stroud was arguably solid in the first 2 games, but this was a really tough game for him. In the coming weeks it'll be interesting to see if he develops or flounders. Not ready to give up on him but his issues seemed more clear today since we couldn't get things going in the air.
