The defense was much improved. They kept Mathews in check, but then made Tolbert look like Mike Alstott.
But, I would say, a big part of the reason SD managed to rack up so many yards is because they had to find a way to get back in the game, so therefore Rivers was forced to throw a lot in the 2nd half. But I'll take this defense, giving up 400 yards and only allowing 14 points over the defense that plays like crap in the red zone, but holds the offense to 250 yards.
