Surprised by how well they ran block (they look like a finesse line to me), but also surprised that their pass blocking was worse. There is probably a reason we saw the return of constant boots and rollouts to ensure there's a moving pocket.
But I'm gonna wait until I can get into some game review when it comes to the OL. Those are just my takes from enjoying the game at live speed.
I watched Boom on almost every snap and thought he played ‘okay’. Meaning at the level of an average NFL player on the OL. Certainly not exceptionally, but simply ‘okay’. But that is far better than he played there early last year before injury.
I intend to watch Corbett, Blythe, and Hav later in the week, but I will say this, already.
These guys will gel more and more with each quarter of each game. I predict that they will be a somewhat above average OL by midseason.
And if they are just an average OL, I think the rest of our O can do some really good things.
