But other than that they gave Burrow a legit pocket with time to read the field and on run plays they moved the pile generally. For some of them (like Price) this is two good outings in a row.
One interesting thing I noticed was since we went to the backups the linemen are not immediately retreating at the snap on pass plays, and the result has been a larger pocket. On run plays they are firing straight off into the defenders which helped Gio and Perine a lot (so did Sample killing it in the blocking game today).
More video would be nice, as it seems like not only are the backups balling out but the technique may have been adjusted?
It was after one of those plays that Calhoun was replaced by Spain
