But through three games Cousins is the 2nd least sacked QB in the league, (he's tied with 3 others for 5 sacks).
Tua is the only one with less sacks (4) but he didn't play today so he shouldn't even be part of the conversation.
This team is just so weird! You go into the season just KNOWING certain things about them and there's always so many aspects that end up being polar opposites from what you thought they'd be. Our offensive line is the perfect example..... To a man, we all just KNEW they were going to blow goats and Kirk was going to be running for his life on every passing play, but after facing two quality defensive lines of the three teams we've played, these guys have done extremely well across the board.
We're SO conditioned to having Kirk getting smashed in the face from constant pressure up the middle, it seems weird to see him sitting in a clean pocket and surveying the field.
This is certainly not a victory lap nor is it a proclamation that our offensive line woes are finally over, I'm simply saying that for once, there's actually hope for improvement in the future, maybe even enough for some of you to remove your names from Reignman 's suicide pact.
My thoughts on each:
(Hill) - He's given up a few sacks (2, I think) and several pressures, but he hasn't gotten annihilated on every other play like I expected him to.
(Cleveland) - Ezra has shown marked improvement over his 2020 campaign and that improvement should (hopefully) continue.
(Bradbury) - Garrett has had his struggles but I haven't noticed him getting shoved into the backfield much at all thus far. I'm hoping he'll shake the bust label as the season progresses.
(Udoh) - Man if ONLY someone could've known Udoh MIGHT have some success if he were moved to RG before now, especially since Kirk was getting destroyed on the reg due to our putrid RG play.
(O'Neill) - Dude has been solid this year and I loved the pancake block of the DE today.
Curious to hear some thoughts on what you've seen from the big men, especially if it varies from the perspectives I've shared.
