The offense line was actually adequate vs the Falcons

One of the dipshit guards was out.

I honestly forget which one is which out of dumb (Miller) and dumber (Daley).

Both of those boneheads needed to be benched a LONG time ago.

Actually both.  Miller is on IR and Daley lost his spot in the starting lineup.

It wasn't just adequate, at times it was dominant in the run game.

Take a look at Scott and Michael Jordan on the replays. That may be the best guard play we have seen all year.

IT was, we have to keep Scott at RG he connected that dot with a line that was broken at the point.

Is it just me or did the offensive line have an entirely different feel yesterday? 

Being able to get aggressive in the run game is the key. Get them out there inflicting the punishment instead of always on their heals in pass protection.

 

Of course, teams will now game plan for the run against us, so we shall see if it continues.

I don’t think the right side of our line ever had an issue with road grating and being big and pushing forward, it’s more the fact we have a RB school committee who all run different and the left side of our line are semi-doughboys. We can’t get too far behind with this squad. God we need at least CMC back next week.

We ran the ball 45 times yesterday (granted some of those were scrambles).  And we got positive yards most times.  That makes pass blocking easier.  

 

Its true that Atlanta's defense isn't that good.  But I also thing having the new running back helped.  He provides some speed and elusiveness that we don't have without CMC.

    • I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

    • Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
