My thoughts

Above what we could have reasonably expected

Interior OL

Everything we hoped for and expected, and it's great that they don't have many early-season rough spots

QB
WR
OT
K/P/LS

Basically very good; early-season rough spots were to be expected
TE (for all their accomplishments, the completions-to-targets ratio isn't that high)
S
True LBs
STs, specialists aside (this low mainly because of penalties)
RB (this low only because of 2 Lewis fumbles)

Very mixed
Edge rushers (great at getting to the QB, lousy at setting the edge)
DTs

Of considerable concern
CB
 
I thought the DEs and DTs were fantastic against Jacksonville. Wasn't mixed for me at all. I've seen a steady improvement from preseason.

But how do you feel about them the other two games?

I think they've been steadily improving in all three games, especially since they've been rotating Ninkovich out more often.

Pittsburgh they weren't great, Buffalo they were better across the board, and Jacksonville I thought it was all really good.
