Because I'm curious, I've never understood what happened to Percy Harvin and why he's mostly underwhelming these days. Got any insight?
I don't think our run d is as bad as the numbers say, though the stats I'm looking at say we're 21st, not 29th. Jamal Charles of the Chiefs hit us pretty well as did Woodhead from the Chargers. We still won those games though. I think it's pretty early on and those numbers will swing a lot.
I didn't notice anything about our D line in your novel above.We've had 15 total sacks already, that's 3 per game. Atkins has to be double teamed and Dunlap has 5 sacks by himself already.
I don't think you have the answer for Green and I do expect him to have a big day Sunday. I'm sure trying to cover both Green and Eifert is a nightmare. Then you also have to worry about Jones, Sanu, and Bernard. In our rushing game, I think Jeremy Hill's coming back with a vengeance this week. He's a talented kid who is having a bit of a sophomore slump but will find his way.
Harvin is actually Tyrod's favorite WR (they know each other from HS ball). His big dropoff the past 2 seasons was his own doing; piss poor attitude, really.
I'm gauging run D on yards/carry; that's probably why the rankings differ (I just find it to be a better indicator than yards/game, since rushing totals can be inflated/deflated depending upon game situations).
I hate facing teams with good D-lines, and Cinci has one for sure. I'd probably focus my double-team on Atkins and hope that Richie (who's actually having a nice rebound season) can handle Peko 1-on-1. I don't so much worry about Glenn at LT. The real worrisome guy is Henderson having to handle either Dunlop or Johnson on the edge. If Shady is healthy, he can chip with the best of 'em, so that would be a big help. Otherwise I think we're compromising a passing target to help out, which I don't want to do.
