Looks like we might get our first look at A.J. Jefferson today.

Hopefully them lacking two starting O line guys can get Robison some sacks and get Allen involved in the game.

Impressive throw there from Ponder. Blitz was in his face and he delivered it on target in a tight window for the first down.
