That would bean interesting case study. When they're getting their asses kicked, they do seem to drop like flies even more from overextending themselves. We lost what, 3 OL in just the Ravens game?
Xmas game felt like this too.
when it rains, it pours.
Trent is like the biggest piece of the offensive puzzle, in a sense. So when he goes down, everything related to blocking and pass protecting is ten times harder, IMO. With Trent, you can slide the protections, and you can leave him one on one, but without him, it's so tough to pickup blitzes if you can't go 5 wide in a come from behind win without keeping more people in. Trent can go one on one, or sometimes one on two (he'll take out two defenders in some cases). Without Trent those double teams are a lot harder.
