we'll be slow out the gates. I'm not sure why he thinks the starting run D was fine without griffin or daniels though...

I also don't know how he can think that brunnel and the staff would decide to leave blitzes unblocked on purpose.

a little too rose colored and shillish for me.

Look at the game, we didn't hold blockers in like we normally do. Whether or not the intention was to pressure brunell, I don't know, but I do know he (bob or whatever) is right about letting the rush in.

I can tell you that in the regular season those blocking schemes would not fly. I think letting Brunell get sacked was not the idea, but letting him get rushed makes sense. Saunders probably instructed him to throw it away or take intentional grounding and Brunell just wasn't paying attention. That's what I got from it.
