FrFan Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/preview06/news/story?page=Redskins/06 SCIENTIFIC METHOD By KC Joyner The Denver Broncos offensive run-blocking group (OL/TE/FB) had the highest overall metrics in 2005, but for my money, the Redskins had the best set of blockers last year. Chris Samuels and Derrick Dockery ad the best set of metrics of any guard/tackle combination (and that does include the Walter Jones/Steve Hutchinson tandem). Samuels topped the 90 percent mark in run-blocking success percentage, and Dockery missed the 90 percent mark by a mere 0.5 percent. The right side of the Skins' line had very good metrics as well. Jon Jansen and Randy Thomas both ranked in the top 20 at their positions in run-blocking success percentage. Combine this great run blocking with a platoon of Clinton Portis, T.J Duckett, and Ladell Betts, and the Redskins could vie for the No. 1 rushing offense in 2006. If we can go airborn too, who's gonna stop us ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nace14 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 he forgot to mention that our center played for the last 2000 yard rusher a few years ago, but over all a very objective fair article. i hate it when people search for a reason to claim the media is somehow putting us down.
