Offensive line play
IMO they did very well for the most part in both pass protection and run support. This was a very good D we faced today. Brees was only sacked once that I can remember and although he was hurried he wasn't pulling himself up off the ground as much as he was when we have played other big physical defenses.
We even are beginning to get something that resembles a running game behind this line. This is important because they are going to have to play like this from here one out. The defenses we have ahead of us aren't going to get any easier and this was a great test which I think we have passed. Another area I see that has been greatly improved is our run defense. We kept Gore in straight up check today. A lot of teams can't say that. We are making adjustments where we need to and that is what real contenders are able to do. Today we lost because of stupid mistakes. We gave them every single point they made. The good thing is that mistakes can be corrected, and I think this just may have been the game to get it out of their system. I have a feeling a lot of players are going to be in Paytons dog house this week. Oh and I do have to give props to Hartley. Nearly gave me a heart attack but he won the game for us so all is forgiven right now. HOPEFULLY he has his mojo back. |
