Re: Saints bring back long snapper Justin Drescher

Then look at this video of the blocked field goal by the Panthers on November 17th. The breakdown here was with the right side of the line allowing Vernon Butler to get enough penetration to get his hand on the ball. The was no pressure from the middle. Also note the low trajectory of the kick. That one was also on Lutz. The Jonathon Hankins (95) blocked FG in the Giants game is difficult to determine Drescher's role. I found two videos, but both start with Jenkins already through a hole. It does end up with Drescher (47) on the ground like he was pulled forward. |
