I watched the game again and paid close attention to the OL. If you watch carefully you will discover that a lot of the blame for poor line play is on of all people Todd Wade. If you watch the game again you will find that in most of the run plays its Todd Wades man that makes the tackle. He does a lil better in pass protection but often looks like he just barely pushes his man to the outside on speed rushes. Nails looked good on run plays often pushing his man back. Ruddy is just not strong. I didnt see him get any push on any run plays. He simply gets stood up. Perry actually looked pretty good. Made some good pulls, had good vision and picked up the blitz on a few plays, and even ran out for a good screen pass to Minor. Wade Smith looked just ok. He definitely is the fastest OL which helped him a lot against the speed rush in passing situations. On run plays it was back and forth sometimes he made his block sometimes he was on his back.
But back to Todd Wade...seriously take a look and tell me if Im crazy.
