It's something we need to continue to evaluate. It seemed the entire pre-season whichever quarterback has played second has played best. It's the second week in a row we gave Gus the opportunity to start, and A.J. has come in and done a nice job in both of those games in the second half.
There are times when we are getting an outstanding performance from the running back. There are times when we are getting a hat on a hat to finish a block. We just have to do it more consistently. ... It's just a matter of execution on a more consistent basis from the entire unit.

When we get weather that's disruptive, which we've had now two years in a row, I think that's benefit number one.
What happens to everybody else has nothing to do with us, understand?
We felt like he should start in the game. I know he had his penalty or two, but we'll continue to evaluate that and we feel like we have three guys who can play tackle.
