I want to begin by saying that Fred Johnson is the worst offensive linemen we have put on the field so far, so his benching is warranted. He had a couple of bright spots but overall, he was bad in both aspects. He was beat by an inside stunt early where he gave up pressure and failed on several of his run block assignments which caused Mixon to stop and cut back, pretty much nullifying the play.So what do you guys look at when studying film of the o-line? Honest question, as I was busy scoring TDs!
Price came in during the second half and honestly, he played great until overtime. For the third and fourth quarter, he looked stout in the pass protection and I didn't see any pressure come from his assignments, but he did struggle in the run game. It looked like he was leading with his shoulder, as if he was trying to get a big hit on his defender instead of engaging his hands. When overtime came, Price kind of collapsed and I counted at least three different occasions where he gave up pressure right up the middle. Pretty disappointing as he was looking great in pass pro.
Hopefully Redmond has improved, I haven't watched him in a quite a while. Another note is that all of the criticism being laid on Hart is 100% valid. He is a very poor pass blocker and through the game I found myself commenting on how much he was getting beat up on by pass rushers. Another surprising thing I saw was that Jordan looked weak in pass protection as well. He was getting bullrushed and moved back fairly consistently, which really surprised me.
