One thing I noticed aside from the plays made by the skill positions, and that was that Henne had all day today and vs. the Pats, that says alot! They blitzed and couldnt get to him.

We started to spread it against them and the Oline was a huge part of this win.
 
I AGREE. I took a look at the game again..If we can get them to block like this for Henne, Henne will light it up. He spread the ball to pretty much everyone this game. Also Fasano coming to life is nice to see.
 
one thing i do notice, is that henne finds people quite late, like two to three steps out of their cuts instead of one to two. just something he can work on.

but yes, the O-Line is starting to gel even without grove and smiley, and berger is doing excellent, gardner, ehhh not so much. but better than ndukwe.

yes, you are correct sir. I notice that too. He is not hitting the receiver consistantly when the ball is suppose to get their when they break. He hesitates alot.

He did make it happen when it was needed most, particularly to Camarillo on 4th and 5.
 
They manhandled the Pats. On one play Jake Long was literally using one arm against a guy who had seemingly already quit on the play.

anyone else notice big jake moving jumping a hair early on like every play during the game, im surprised they never through the flag. and on that note, if i remember correctly, no penalties for the line today. :hi5:
 
As great as our o-line is, NE has 0 pass rush.
 
I also noticed Carey was the second left tackle in an unbalanced line. Carey and Long next to each other. You think we noticed they blitz alot from the left side?
