superozman Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 With everyone jumping on CB's back after last night's performance...I just want to throw out there the unsung heroes. Last nights O-Line did STELLAR. My buddy watchign the game with me mentioned just now much time he noticed the QB's had in the pocket and the holes up the middle for Mason and Rock. Yards/Attemp were 12+ for JC and CB, TC was only 5 y/a. 86% completetion percentage for the QB's combined 5 yards a carry for both RB's combined. Only negative was 3 sacks, but it was the first game out. For an O-line to perform that well on the first night, that is ALWAYS a good sign.

mel25 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 i noticed a lot of cut back lanes too. if cp gets those same cut back lanes, this could be a good year for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IbleedBnG83 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Other than Jansen or Heyer, the offensive line was solid. Crummey looked good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Recent Vintage Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Collin's fumble would've been a sack if he had held on to the ball. I'm pretty disappointed with the O-Line actually, but mostly for the pass blocking. Heyer didn't look as good as we're used to seeing him, and Jansen didn't have a good game. Seeing Rinehart dominate was nice, but the pass-blocking is making me worry. Freeny didn't even play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morneblade Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 The interior part of the line was exceptional. They didnt allow penitration on passing downs and reall took care of business in running downs. Tackles didnt look so good though. Jansen looks like he did last year (not good) and I've been saying for a couple years we need a new RT. We do and Jon needs to be depth for us, not starting. Heyer looked overmatched at times as well. But our Guards/Center were real good last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbleedBnG83 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I never was big on Heyer. They played alot of jumbo sets and stacked TE's on his side last year to compensate. I like him and hope he improves, but i'm not sold on him as a starter. I wonder about how Crummey or Rinehart would look at that RT spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't pay attention to the tackles too much...but Colt is mobile back there, maybe that helped the line...??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDSKNfaithfull Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Yea, i believe it was the first run of the game Rock had a HUGE cutback lane...reminscent of CP's first run against TB Indy had 10 players on the field though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADF Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Other than the sack on JC, the QB held on to the ball too long. I definitely know Collins did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
