Time to pump the brakes: the Oline isn't that bad.

We have 7 on 6 in the box, then a DB shows blitz but should be picked up by Hill after the play action.  However, Zeitler inexplicably pulls, leaving us undermanned in the middle and Bodine finds himself losing leverage on the DT who gets clear through to Andy.  Note that if 68 had stayed where he was we would have had a clean pocket and given Andy several seconds to pick his target.

Yup. Bodine looked like he was expecting a double team from Z and when he realized dude had vacated the premises, it was too late and he got knocked on his arse.

Note that we're running out of 4WR shotgun and the defence are in the nickle with a single high safety and 4DB out wide.  In other words, hat on hat we should be able to open a lane and get 5+ yards before the safety can come up or the outside defenders can affect the play.

However, we mess up the 3v3 stunt with poor leverage and no downhill push, and the play is stopped at the line of scrimmage for a 1 yard gain.

That was one that stood out to me when i was watching it yesterday. Hill could have easily bounced that outside. He even had a couple wideouts ready to block for him but for some reason, he tried to force it back inside.
