I just saw another replay of the high arcing pass Brock made to McCaffrey to beat I'm assuming a blitz. Trent on the play was on a double team block with Kittle, but looks like he should've been trying to block the DT who had a free shot at sacking Purdy. I don't really know the blocking scheme but I swear Trent had no idea what the hell he was doing on that play.

The blitz pickups are consistently a problem. Is that all on Brendel? Perhaps. He's clearly the weakest link.

Watching alot of JTO's stuff....I don't think the modern NFL blitz pickups are made like us old timers are use to seeing.

The Blitz pick up is often on the QB, lots of offenses seem to let the freeman come now and it is up to the QB to account for it.

We have Shanny saying often that is on Brock.

To me personally, I think the Modern passing offense is too full of its self...we have decades of examples that simple, yet consistent blitz pick ups work.

anyway...when I am done with this post....im gonna go outside and yell at some clouds....damn clouds.....

Good point, If it is on the QB then Brock needs to work on that part of his game because it sucks

That play looked like it was definitely on Trent. I doubt Banks, Brendel, Puni and McKivitz all mistakenly slid to the right

Remember Brendel calls the protections. I trust Trent over Brendel 100/100 times.
