How does Zavala, (or anyboby for that matter), get a goose egg for pass blocking? You'd havde to think that a palyer would eventually accidentally get in the way of a rusher for a play or two a game.

PFF has a weird formula. If I remember right the score is the net of negative plays and positive plays combined added from zero. So it’s not grading you like a math quiz, it’s how many positives vs negatives and then some other X and Y factors to get the score. 
 

Basically he did little to no good with very capable match ups and conditions and it was so one sided he couldn’t push the formula to a positive number.

I hate to break it to you but fans don't want to see Young at least reasonable fans who realize Bryce is most likely a bust

LOLwut?  No way you're being serious.  As I've said, its too soon to call Bryce a bust, its also too early to say he'll be fine, but its an unknown after 2 friggen games.  That said, no one, not even Andy Daltons mother have ever said they want to see Andy Dalton play QB right now.  Dalton is on his last leg in the NFL and offers absolutely nothing to us for future hope regardless of how he does.  Since we suck, we need to play young players and see if there's any hope for the future with them.

Isn’t there a thread of folks saying start Dalton the rest of the year?

Didnt even think but yea, you're right.  Its a terrible Idea there too, Ive seen the thread and presumed it was everyone just saying how bad of an idea that is.  Fact is we need to see how our young players are, we're not winning now and its obvious, so we need to see if theres ANY future with the team with our young players.

Ummm... the Vikings are gonna score 50 

I don’t think so. The betting line is going to be pretty accurate in this one I think. Been looking at the Vikings all day, they literally only have the Cousins to Jefferson connection which will be 3/4 of their yards. The OL is like ours and the run game isn’t there. 
 

Their defense isn’t there at all. If Dalton plays it’s close. I expect a 27-24 or 31-27 type game.

If Bryce and his 20 flat routes show up it could get ugly.

I'm going to give Ikcey a break since he's having to try and pickup some slack from Zavala filling in at LG - and is coming off his worst game of the year by far - but it is disappointing. His PFF grade was like 20 points higher on the year after the Saints game, IIRC.

It's a reminder that, despite playing well overall last year, Ickey is still a young player with developing left to do.

I am not sure if we realized how much missing the starting guards would set this team back. This line was put together as more to run block than pass block. That was one big change from last year. The Offensive tackles have probably been affected by trying to compensate for ineffective guard play as well.

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game.

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.

      I did, but again we're aware of the practice in college of inflating height/weight as well as what is considered normal and his freshman weight tells a lot. There was a recent Raw Room episode where at one point they were discussing putting on their "big boy weight" when they go to the pros. It's common for guys to have to slap on 20lbs over the summer, but King Dunlap mentioned having to put on 30 and how much of a toll that took on his body. That makes the idea of putting on 50 at the college level even harder to believe. I've got experience with cutting weight and that type of drop sounds just awful... and that's even if doing it healthy and not just turning yourself into a piece of human jerky. Having to add 50? Noooooo thank yoooou. I can understand wanting to take Scourton at face value, but we didn't take Bryce at face value either (and for good reason!). Give the recently posted videos a shot. I watched the one you linked even though I've already seen it, so why not extend the same courtesy? I think you'll find yourself getting more excited about his Purdue tape than you will being irritated by what you believe are false narratives being pushed. 😄
