PFF Grades vs Tampa

Barry from MS · 10-07-2014, 08:06 PM

Our O-Line is built to run the ball (finally) as we are 2nd in the NFL in average per rush. Freakin Armstead is a stud in the run and Grubbs, too, for that matter. Where did that last run by Robinson to seal the win go? Armstead's and Grubbs' side. It is a great sign moving forward.

I am also very impressed with our O-Line depth so far. Yeah, you read that right. Lelito coming in for Goodwin the last 2 games and it seems the pass protection is a bit better. Lelito is not spectacular, but solid.

Then, there's Bryce Harris...I love this dude. Comes in at LT last week, and he didn't play light's out but he held his own. Then, he comes in at RT this week and is solid. I love that he can step in there at either tackle position and get it done. That's what you absolutely need from a back-up O-lineman.

Call me crazy, but our O-line depth is not as bad as I thought coming into the season. Coaches know what they're doing in that regard.

Now can our receivers please catch the ball and can the O-line remember how to give our QB time to throw the ball?

I can't believe our O-Line is #9 at pass blocking.

You got me on that one, too. Drew has been sacked 4 times in 218 pass attempts, but that can so be misleading.

So, I reckon the #25 through #32 pass blocking lines were either:

1) using 3-4 linemen blocking for pass attempts
2) having most of the linemen fall down on half of the pass attempts

I love the run blocking. We should take advantage of it more often.

Lelito has been a pleasant surprise at center considering how bad he was at guard last year.

But I've got to disagree about Harris. He played terrible. He got pushed around almost every play in Dallas. And in my opinion, he was the biggest single reason why our offense couldn't get anything going against da boys.
