Why isn't anyone calling out the line that couldn't keep the lambs from blocking?

Don't know if we can stop them from jumping. That said, was the kick too low?

Actually the first block was from around the side, whoever was blocking on the right side of the line was at fault for that one

Thanks, because I actually closed my eyes for most of the game. I'm not kidding. I made Gumbo today and when things went bad it wasn't worth watching and I listened in the kitchen and nibbled on Gumbo most of the afternoon with friends and family.

the kick was pretty much a line drive. He could have put it up more and the tip never would have happened.

Actually you can, its really simple, you block the straight on, almost like a runblock, that way you can push anybody that jumps to the ground.
