Don't disagree on the defense crapping the bed. That was pretty puzzling and atrocious to watch.
But Meyers is pedestrian on percentage, I realize the graph is sorted by makes but percentage is a more telling metric.
I saw one formation with a FB, but he wasn't used for blocking. It was a rollout near the endzone.
But yeah, looks like the I-formation is on hold until Ouzts gets back.
underperforming or is Tampa Bay's O-line answering the call today? We're surprisingly not even getting close to him. I don't see any change in schematics that can really explain this.
We are a little thinner at our edge rushers as well. Things tend to wear down when the depth is hit that much.
Their passing game looks great against our coverage today though. BM is having a baller day.
On the second play, I don't disagree with you, and I feel it's the lesser of the issues.
The primary thing I saw was someone who was within tackling distance of a ballcarrier and he completely stopped pursuit when he started angling away.
What is going on with Kendrick on that last couple of plays? When the ball carrier took an angle he just stopped running and gave up. Then on the TD, he didn't get any leverage at all and got washed immediately in a block.
He needs to get in space with the o-line sealing off some edges for him occasionally. It's not all on him obviously, but there are times he goes along the line when he needs to put his head down and get those 2-3 yeards instead of no gain. Little bit of an old school approach though, easy for us...
