Nice moving pictures article about a pass blocking line trying to become a power running line.

Then a bit at the end about Rudolph's struggles on 3rd downs being related to not making the right read when the defense shifts.

Finally, finishes with a bit about the defense being on the field for too many plays.

All in all, a pretty nice one stop shop for what needs to change for the team to rebound. It will be hard because they are built to play a certain way on offense and now have to play the exact opposite of that.

Didn’t read the article yet but heard today that the Steelers are running the ball more than 2018 and that Conner ranks 50th in Yards gained after the first hit. 50th by the way is last...

Salty quotes from AV in a P-G article on what is wrong with the OL

“Whether we like it or not, we drop back and pass all the time. That’s not a deal for offensive linemen because the winning rate is going to drop [if you pass protect from a 3-point stance]. When you get in a two-point stance, you’re going to help yourself a little bit. We’ve been a gun team for so long even if we run. If you throw the ball out of a formation and your hand is on the ground, it’s very difficult to get up and do what we do with our vertical sets, the new techniques that we’ve been doing for a very long time.

“When I watch other offenses I think, ‘How cool would it be to put your hand down and just run misdirection passing plays all day, play-action, blah, blah, blah.’ But you can’t look outside at what everyone else is doing. As a team, we have to come up with a better plan, play better, execute better.”
