Some of our issues defending TE’s were glaringly pointed out by Romo in the AFCCG, where we refused to chip Kelce.   We need to be more physical at the release points.  I tend to think philosophy/coaching leads to some of the problems that we place on the players.  Just not a fan, at all, of the bend but don’t break defense and really hope the DL steps up, because we all know McD’s Defense is predicated on pass rush from the Front 4.   You’d think we’d be more aggressive, knowing how good our Offense is, but it is what it is.

As far as OL goes.. Dawkins is a very good LT, and - agreed - our guards are average to below average at everything, but Morse and Williams are both above average is pass pro.  Spencer Brown looks very promising at swing tackle.

I think we have an above average pass blocking OL and below average run blocking OL.  Hoping Ford and Feliciano can fix the run blocking woes, because in pass pro, whenever Allen has pressure, those two dudes are where it usually comes from.  They are both supposed to be nasty, road grader types.
