Eich's blocking on Tua's 6 TD's
Waddle #1
Eich pulls outside and destroys defender to spring waddle for TD!
Gesicki TD 2
Eich denies any inside threat, then helps on Edge.
Cracraft TD 3
Eich double Edge Rusher and allows no upfield pressure. Unknowledgeable folks think the inside pressure was Eich's responsibility but that is not the case. That's Conner Williams guy. Eich stays to check if LB is blitzing (he does not)
You will notice Williams peeling after him when he gets by while Eich stays right on his man the entire play.
Hill TD 4
Eich picks up blitzing LB in pass pro - stops him cold. No pressure.
Hill TD 5
Eich stinks it up. Poor footwork, allows his many to come in and pressure Tua. No sack. Pressure unable to stop 3 step drop TD.
Waddle TD 6
Eich has inside priority. Steps inside, seals pressure from DT, then quickly jumps outside and ends DE pressure allowing Tua to make unhindered throw for TD to win game.
This is one of Eichs best plays, because id he doesn't step outside that DE is getting loose and may have hit Tua on Game winning throw. How do you watch film and not see that?
So when I break down film this is the type of play I routinely see from Eich. Not perfect. But a whole lot better blocking percentage than what I see him getting graded on by the outside. It's pretty obvious that McDaniel's grading of our OL is much closer to mine than it is PFF or any of the non coaches websites doing these breakdowns. McDaniel has mentioned our OL grades after a few games and does not agree with those low grades at all.
