NOTE: SUBJECTIVE OPINION ALERT

I don't think many coordinators would blitz Campbell at all if they didn't think they could break down our protections in the process. The 6+ man blitzes, designed at getting more rushers than the offense could pick up, were incredibly beatable by Campbell last year. It's the 5 man rushes and 4 man zone blitzes that we failed to pick up and resulted in pressure on the QB.

The protection schemes were lacking, but it's tough to say how much of that is on the QB, how much is on the coaches, and how much is on the line itself.
