Overall the Big Uglies were OK vs a very good Panthers D without their best pass rusher. No one was even average in run blocking but, the interior held up pretty well in pass protect vs two really good DTs.

Garner- 0 sacks, 0 hits, 0 hurries. Best I've seen him in pass protect..

Jerry- 0- 0- 1 and 1 penalty. Another VG game in pass blocking.

Brenner- 0- 1- 2. Sorry to see him get hurt, he looks like a keeper. Look forward to seeing him next year.

Arkin- 1- 0- 0. Looked like Alan Arkin, and got beat for a sack on 3 plays.

McKennie- 1- 2- 2. Coming back to why Balt replaced him the last 2 games.

Clabo- 0- 2- 2 and 2 penalties. Another bad game.

Overall, the DL was around average, after a VG first half, vs a VG Panthers OL with a sub at LG.

Wake- 0 sacks, 2 hits, and 6 hurries. Missed 3 tackles, and had problems vs the run.

Vernon- 1- 0- 5. He was all over the field, may have been his best game this year.

Odrick- 0- 0- 3, Had a good game vs run and pass.

Starks- 0- 0- 2. Average game

Soliai- 0- 0- 0. Got beaten by Kalil and the OG's, pretty much MIA.

Jordan- 1- 0- 0. Made a play, as he seems to do in every game, and was on the field more this week.

We did not lose this game because of the play in the trenches but, we did not do anything to win it either. The OL is understandable based on talent but, the DL has to be better for a whole game and play up to their talent by making more plays.
