Yes, this. The short yardage game and pass protection starts at Center. Going from Faine to Goodwin to BDLP from '06 to now is a pretty good downgrade of talent at the position and it shows. BDLP gets his named called too much in-game, and not for good things either. He's just getting blown up too often on short yardage runs; he just isn't strong enough or talented enough to push even average interior D-lineman off the line of scrimmage. Graded the lowest of all 5 O-lineman this week, too, which isn't shocking at all going against a good D-line.
