Throw out the sacks and the RBs averaged almost 6 ypc. Some curious playcalling hurt. With the defense knowing we had no intention of throwing downfield, we still ran the ball effectively for the most part.
But, 6 more sacks against a team who only had 4 in 5 games coming into tonight is mind boggling. I have no idea if it's scheme, talent, coaching or what, but this OL is dreadful.
I thought we'd recruited well the past few years but it sure doesn't look that way now. I thought, early on, Buford did well. Then he gave up a sack because his technique was abysmal. His man just pushed right by him because he was so off balance. And, all the OL have plays where they just look completely overmatched and are unable to be effective with solid technique.
I'm not ready to give up on Scang and Yenser but they've simply got to be better and coach better.
