On top of joining an offensive line that is already pretty good at protecting the quarterback, I expect that Grubbs pass protection will be considered significantly better just because of the change in quarterbacks that he's blocking for.

It's common knowledge that Flacco holds on to the ball way too long and he's only slightly more mobile than the new Gleason statue in front of the Dome. That, in and of itsel,f has to make an offensive linemans life harder. By contrast, Drew has fantastic pocket presence. Sometimes he seems to have eyes in the back of his head

(if you happen to read this Roger Goodell, it was only a joke Drew Brees does NOT have eyes in the back of his head. There's no reason to suspend him)
