I haven't re-watched the game, nor was I focused on the OL while watching it live, but to me it seemed like the offense was much more effective with Fuller snapping the ball to Russ. Obviously we saw Pocic get destroyed by Buckner on one play, but I'm wondering if anyone here has taken a look at how the two centers performed?
Obviously Pocic was rusty and maybe not 100% healthy, and Indy made adjustments to slow down our offense, but we've seen it before where Pocic is simply outmatched whenever he's 1:1 in pass pro against better DTs and it leads to plays constantly being blown up. It may be a moot point since Pocic is hurt again but I'm really hoping that Fuller can cement himself as the starter and continue to develop along with the rest of the OL.
Any thoughts on Fuller's performance? Does he look like the answer at C?
