Re: Smoot Lays The Smack Down (Week 3)

I disagree about this run blocking thing. Our line is doing a very good job. By that I mean that teams are gameplanning to stop portis. Think about it, how many times did you see ALL of the Cardinals linebackers JUMP TO THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE every time time Campbell did the play action? Heck, everyone was fooled on that touchdown to Yoder; including the guy that was 'covering' him.

We have a darn good line built by Bosshog himself. This line can get everyone to stack the box and make Campbell's job easier to pick up first downs. Like that 4th and 2 to Moss two weeks ago; so we could kill the clock. Or that other completion we had last week so we could continue to kill the clock. Or that bomb to single covered Moss against the Saints. Or that bomb to wide open Devin against the cards. Those plays were possible because of Gibbs and Buges building a darn good line and getting a darn good back to run behind it.

Just think about it. If you give Portis a lane he's going to break one on you. If you give a struggling quarterback more space..............he might get it, he might not. Its a new offense and it doesn't take a genius to know that he is still struggling with it. If you're the defense guy Who are you going to focus on stopping?

I just hope Dallas will bite on the play action the way the Cardinals did. And stack the box the way the Cardinals and everyone else has done. Doing so will make Campbell's job more easier. Especially in short yardage or at the goal lines. Dallas likes to stack the box for those. I would like to see a play action pass get called then! It should be pretty exciting!
