How did Hubert do with the Oline?
Poorly, because he sucks. OLine is getting blamed because of a lack of skill at skill positions.
I agree, but Sams would have made Hubert look good, too. Just like Klein did.
I didn't have a great viewing angle, and couldn't figure out if it was Hubert or the line that was not getting the job done. My assumption was Hubert just because the line seemed so solid last year and returned basically everyone. Obv. some of you have voiced different opinions on what transpired during the game. I don't disagree, but the conclusion that I'm kind of drawing is that Hubert just isn't the type of runner who can carry the load without a legitimate threat back there with him at QB.
I should put this next part in another post, but I'm lazy.
It looked like Water threw the ball well for a lot of the game. The two deep balls were beautiful and the scrambling play where he hit a receiver down the sideline was probably his best play all night. I also liked his throw on what looked like a 15 yd out. He seems to be able to make all the throws.
But what about the sacks? Not getting rid of the ball quick enough, or inadequate protection from the o-line? I hope not both.
I like Sams. I'm a Sams fan, and would have liked to have seen him used more, maybe given his own couple of series. I'm not going to BID about Waters though.
