Sad Sacks?

Texans QB David Carr was sacked last year 76 times but last week the Dolphins did not sack him once. Their offensive line has shown major improved play based off of this first game. Second year player Chester Pitts is the starter at left tackle where he got an opportunity to start as a rookie last year with Tony Boselli sidelined. He struggled most of last year but last week held Jason Taylor without a sack. Milford Brown starts at left guard, with Steve McKinney at center. Veteran free agent signees give the team leadership on the right side with Greg Randall starting at tackle and Zach Wiegert starting at guard. Let's hope the Saints can sack Carr several times and pressure him into some bad throws that can be picked off. Stuffing the run will also be a priority. Establishing control early will be important as to not let them get confidence in their ability. An early lead could set the tone.

My other hope is that our DL doesn\'t get continually blown backwards like last Sunday. Stacy Mack can really pound the ball through the holes, and last week Domenic Davis looked like he was giving the Fins fits every time he handled the ball. If they get a solid run game together then Carr will have an extra plus with the play action.
