Offensive line has delivered for Saints

Korte made a good point about pass blocking vs. run blocking that I hadn't thought about before. If you are pass blocking it would seem that you are always defending your QB instead of attacking the defense to open holes for your running back. I can see where an Olineman would like to be aggressive and knock the defense back. Having a running game has probably helped the confidence of our Oline as much as anything else.

And it turn, the excellent play of the offensive line had brought forth a pretty solid run game. It's always good when you have a good group of RB's behind a line that can bust people in the mouth to open holes for them to run through. This is the first time that I can remember where I'm elated by both sides of the ball....especially in the trenches.
