What a difference a week makes!!
Last week it was fun to watch and grade the OL as they were so dominant, this week not so much.
We had moments of playing well on the OL, but then would have a play or plays that we just were not good enough and some we were downright awful.
Pass blocking was our biggest issue as we struggled to identify who BG was sending and when the DL ran twists between the end and DT.
Andries: 65% on 17 plays - He played ok in the run game, but was beat a couple times by their movement.
Olson: 90% on 20 plays. He got after it all half
JMS: 80% on 20 plays. He did not dominate like he has been doing in prior games. Played well but not dominant
Dunlop: 71% on 14 plays His game improved again this week. Had less reps this half, which considering the altitude was a good idea. He has continually gotten better with each game.
Faalele: 90% on 20 plays - He had a good half of football when we were running the ball.
Schlueter: 40% on 20 plays Typically he is a great run blocker, but in this half he really struggled to get to his man and keep his legs going. Got overpowered a couple times and all in all it was not a good half of run blocking for him.
Ruschmeyer: 150% on 2 plays Did his job well on the 2 plays he was in
Kieft: 64% on 14 plays. He was not his normal overpowering self in this half.
BSF: 67 % on 6 plays His blocking remains a work in progress
As stated above we really struggled in the passing game to pick up blitzes and stunts.
Andries: 100% on 9 plays Worked well with Olson when at LT to keep BG at bay
Olson: 93% on 15 plays
JMS: 67% on 15 plays Not sure his grade being low is all his fault or not as I don't know what the protection should have been on any one particular play.
Dunlop: 88% on 8 plays He played well in the pass game by picking up the twists between the DE and DT, but see below.
Faalele: 40% on 15 plays - He was really good if he had a one on one pass blocking assignment. What got him in trouble was when BG would run a twist between the DE and DT. He would get caught flat footed and not look inside quick enough when the DE would leave his area which would allow the DT to beat him on the inside after Dunlop would pass the DT off to pick up the DE.
Schlueter: 57% on 14 plays His struggles were different that Big Dan as he had a tough time reaching the DE when lined up wide, similar to the OSU strip sack play. He wasn't able to get to his landmark as the DE's quickness would allow him to turn the corner and force Tanner to scramble.
Kieft: 67% on 3 plays
Not a great half of football by the OL
A couple of plays to highlight our struggles.
First a pass play. BG lines up with 3 DL covering our Center, LG and LT with a LB behind them and only 1 outside our RT with a LB inside of him. Guessing the OL call was to slide left from the way they moved. We had a couple problems. Potts immediately ran a swing route and the DE went with him. The Nose moved to our Right side and Blaise picked him up. The DT went wide left and Sam picked him up leaving Connor and JMS with nobody to block initially but both LB blitzed. JMS picked up the one on the left as I am assuming the slide left call and the one who was lined up to the right came free right up the middle pretty much untouched as JMS wasn't looking his way. He did get a slight arm on him but not enough to slow him down for the sack. With more time you can see at the top left of the screen Dylan W. breaking open deep and from the sideline view he had a receiver open for a short gain.
The second is a running play. This really shows it takes everyone to on the OL to do something to have a successful play. Blaise at LT missed his guy forcing Bucko to run right, and Sam at RE wasn't quick enough to pick up the Safety coming in from that side stopping Bucko for no gain. If either of those two can get a piece of their guy Bucko makes positive yardage as either the hole would have been just behind Daniel and Inside of Ko for a about a 3 to 5 yard gain or it would have been just off of Sam for a big gain.
