Oline props.... - Sled21 - 10-05-2015
Dontari Poe, Tamba Hali, Justin Houston..... met a wall they could not penetrate. Have to give it up to Paul Alexander and his Oline. Andy has only been sacked twice this year. Outstanding play Gentlemen.....

No doubt, 2 sack in 4 games is a tribute to a great OL and a QB who makes quick reads and releases the ball quickly.
In retrospect, Smith was sacked in 1 game 5 times.

Yes, that was quite the challenge. Probably the best pass rushers in the league on the Chiefs.
Loved the way they were pulling as well. Maulin it.

also give some props to Dalton for reading the defense and changing things up at the line to protect himself.

Here's Zeitler's favorite prop:
(Don't get sore. They needed to clean up the procedural stuff, and that's not entirely new for Alexander's O-lines.)

Yep and our QB hasn't really had to throw it all that quickly as he's averaging 10.2 yards per attempt, which is tied for tops in the league with Rothlesberger for starting QBs.
Dalton has had a lot of time to throw compared with guys like Luck or Tannehill, who are running for their lives in the backfield. I'm really surprised how some teams just don't draft the offensive linemen needed to protect their QBs. Alex Smith didn't have much time yesterday, yet still did pretty well.

I wonder what his release time is this season? Prior to this it was on average 2.2 seconds from snap to throw. As to the high yards per attempt it has helped a lot that he is getting a little time to let plays develop this season.
