Pass Protection...

[dawgstudent]

Auburn brought 4 most of the game so I'm still unsure our OL in pass protection. The one great thing about that though was Dak was finding and completing to receivers with great accuracy.

Garrett is scaring me a little...

Muschamp adjusted 2nd half, did try to blitz, they were putting seven in the box but our OL did very well on pass protection. I have no worry with our pass blocking overall. Hoping we get better with running the ball which I do think will happen. Most folks don't take in account it takes a few games for "new faces" in the OL to start jelling and working as a unit.

our ol looked like a different squad vs auburn, but hall and garrett are going to be major problems for us, just like they are for everyone.

quick fyi as well:

Sacks

NAME	sack
Myles Garrett, DL	7
Jonathan Bullard, DL	4
Daeshon Hall, DL	4
A.J. Jefferson, DL	4
Richie Brown, LB	3

I assume Warren will be assigned to blocking Garrett.

 

[tenureplan]

yes - Maybe we can get him ejected right off the bat again this year

I expect us to get to Allen Saturday too. aTm is last in sec in sacks allowed. We're #3 in sacks in sec while not facing a passing team.

 

[msstate7]

I assume Warren will be assigned to blocking Garrett.

And Shump... This is the week where Shump can really earn his keep

Anyone notice how much Jenkins played Saturday? I didn't go back and watch, but seemed like he was in a lot in the first half.

I noticed Shumpert normally helped the LT when he stayed in to block.

I assume Warren will be assigned to CUT BLOCK Garrett.

FIFY

Yup. Everybody is going to cry buckets, but Shump has a chance to be the MVP this week through pass protection alone.

The good news is that we've developed this bubble screen and pass to RB's that negates some of the edge speed issues. You can't sack a guy that has thrown the ball before you can get there.

Seemed like Jenkins played more in 1st half than 2nd. Hope that's not an indication of injury. Liked what I saw of Jenkins, better footwork than Warren.

The Zone Read

Auburn brought 4 most of the game so I'm still unsure our OL in pass protection. The one great thing about that though was Dak was finding and completing to receivers with great accuracy.

It will be interesting to see if it stays on the shelf this weekend. I think the zone read is a great way to neutralize a speed defensive end. It slows them down a step.

I'm not suggesting that I would like to see it again as we ran it a year ago. I am saying I think it would be important to show it early two or three times to keep MG a little bit more honest.

 

[Lawdawg.sixpack]

That wasn't Garrett. I think it was another FR, though.

 

[tenureplan]

You are correct sir

If we could run at all, running at him every play and tiring him out would be a smart move.
