A-back blocking

[mmbt0ne]

Only doing plays where they A-back block mattered since I don't feel like spending more time looking at stuff. Full replays; just another reason ESPN360 is awesome.

Through the first half:

First Drive
12:50 - 2nd and 5: AA whiffs LB block
12:20 - 3rd and 6: AA good enough LB block, not a stick
11:50 - 1st and 10: Roddy a little lost blocking, doesn't get anyone
10:45 - 1st and 10: AA GREAT block downfield to spring Dwyer
10:15 - 1st and 10: Roddy good effort LB block
9:10 - 1st and 10: Marcus Wright superb LB block, earns Roddy a TD

Second Drive
7:10 - 2nd and 7 - Orwin Smith okay DB block
5:50 - 1st and 15 - Roddy whiffs on DB block

Third Drive
1:30 - 2nd and 4 - AA great LB block
0:30 - 2nd and 7 - GREAT Roddy LB block
0:20 - 1st and 10 - Wright okay, but can't hold the LB block

Fourth Drive
none

Fifth Drive
none

Sixth Drive
2:10 - 1st and 10 - Roddy strong LB block, OL blows it
1:35 - 2nd and 9 - AA goes past LB untouched, but maybe b/c guy was too wide? Nesbitt broke big run.



Will try to look at 2nd half later tonight.

a lot of analysis that could be put more simply:

offense did a much better job of execution this time around, and on defense i PRAY that wommack sticks with the simpler setup... who cares if it could be better? we've seen how it is... we opened up offense this year, we'll do defense next year... hell, even the players said that the new coverages/setup were all fun and no thought this time around, compared to Miami when their heads were "spinning" according to Derrick Morgan.

but Id like see the 2nd half stats with blocks, too... I wanna see if I'm right, or if the final score just got to my head first...
