Against every defensive lineman

The season, game by game
Why it matters. Consistency matters to a team: one huge game and five quiet ones is a different season from six solid ones. Over 8 games, Asher Wilson's best came in week 2 at Akron and his quietest in week 4 at Buffalo.
Where he does his damage
