In 2017, we ranked 29th with a paltry 3.6 ypc. Under Pollack, we averaged 4.7 ypc - which was our best ranking since 2000. Almost 20 years.
We went from talking like Joe Mixon was a bust to thinking he's a top 5 back. The pass blocking was still bad, but did show some improvement. In 2017, Dalton was sacked every 12.7 attempts. In 2018, he was sacked every 17.4 attempts. That's actually a pretty substantial improvement.
I was pretty disappointed to see Pollack go. I think we lost a good one there.
Yeah, I would've liked to see what the line looked like in it's second season under Pollack.
Just hope they continue to improve and make significant strides with Turner.
