I hate to be negative after a nice win, and there was certainly a lot of positives from yesterday but these two things still concern me.
Two total sacks in two games against inferior opponents. Yesterday we did get significantly more pressure but I am still a little concerned. Nothing from Golston (although I do feel kind of bad for him because he has to slide in on passing downs).
For the run blocking there is just too much or penetration into the backfield. I know we ended with 5 yards a carry but the majority of that was made up against a worn down Rutgers defense (due to their poor offense). Negative run plays are drive killers. Part of it is we just need to get healthy with Barnwart and Jackson out.
