Very nice article, three good gifs showing Nelson doing extremely good work.

He has been quite good over the first 2 games. Fix coverage in the middle of the field (*cough*Fitz), stick with 3 DL to stop the running game, and the D might be onto something ... unless more @#$%ing "communication" issues arise.
