Payton said in his interview, we are seeing a lot of man and Drew is holding on to the ball longer. Some of those sacks were coverage sacks.

I think it was the TB game that papz and I said we noticed him holding on longer than usual.

Sacks, of course, are not good, and 10 seems like a lot.
Factor in how much we are throwing now, and it evens out a little. Every team who has had more dropbacks has a losing record and has played from behind all year.
Hate to say that it keeps coming back to us not having enough money to re-sign Bushrod or another quality OT

We need help thats for sure. A 100% Evans would help but he cant be a miracle worker. Im all for getting some help on the line via some sort of trade if we can. Im not so worried about or defense right now, we will start getting players back soon and they rest of the problems we can address through draft and FA. We need Oline help right now.

We miss Kromer. We also have a hurt Evans, and we also have a different Left Tackle. They need more snaps together as a unit, and it's gonna take time for it to click; just hoping it is clicking when we start Week 11. Or before Drew gets killed back there.

Actually, I would say before week 10 since we play dallas who has some pretty good pass rushers

Then we get the teams below. The falcons probably have the weakest pass rush of those teams but ultimately we can not go into those slate games with our line playing like it is now and expect good things to happen.

49ers
Falcons
Seahawks
Panthers
