Probably the first time I can recall LOB making a good contribution - excellent ball use (which was the story when he was drafted) but also put serious effort into restricting his opponent.
Ditto Paddy Dow, who has discovered (or possibly rediscovered) how to deliver the ball by foot and is not getting caught with the ball like he used to - it seems that he now has the strength to break tackles and keep his feet to pass the ball by hand despite being tackled.
Maybe they both just needed to develop more slowly than your average first round draft picks.
