So You Ask, Who Was The Bucs Best Offensive Lineman In 2010 at Pass Protection?

[Biggs3535]

What we really need is someone (ahem, Biggs) to share the oline running blocking and pass pro stats from sight yet to be named...

Yuccs stats are from that site, and those are the pass pro.

The OL's run-grades are as follows:

Penn:  -3.2
Joseph:  -19.3  (he sucks bigtime)
Faine:  -0.5
Zuttah:  -5.6
Larsen:  -4.7
Hardman:  -4.3
Lee:  -6.4
Trueblood:  -0.8

The Bucs were the 4th worst run-blocking team (while also the 3rd best rush-grade thanks to Blount and Freeman) in the league and 2nd worst pass blocking team in the league.  The OL blows at doing their jobs.  Freeman and Blount make them look good.

I'd add thanks to both Lorig(44) and Purvis (80) (to a lesser extent on run blocking.)

How many snaps did each of those guys take?   Truebloods # looks out of whack due to small sample size?

Man, Davin is bad but he's hit a whole new level, assuming this measure is from the site I'm thinking and they haven't adjusted their grading from last year.

Sunny - Here is a link to google docs where I upload the excel sheet for all offensive lineman in the NFL. yes, on average centers tend to give up less pressure then any other offensive line position. But when you look at where Zuttah ranks compared to other centers and see where Faine ranks it east to see why some want the Bucs to cut ties with Faine and allow Zuttah the chance to continue to grow as a center

Briggs - Yes, the stats have been cobbled together using stats from Profootball Focus.com then deduced to get pressures per pass attempt and pressure percentage.

Yeah, Lorig was a much better blocker than EG and Purvis than K2.

You want total snaps or the run/pass splits?

[blind melon]

Splits - please..

I'm certain it will only confirm what we already know...

One of the nice things about that site is the game charts/graphs...   gives you an idea who win's and loses in opponent one on one matchups.

(Wish it weren't so damn expensive... )

The pressure percentage at that link is a good read. Not a lot of shocking data in there if you watched the way we played.

[dbucfan]

The big surprise to me is Zuttah doing well at pass pro, having watched him having both assignment and balance issues in blocking - well credit the guards for taking the rap I guess.  Then looked at PFF run stats for Zuttah - and again I am surprised - to the point of wondering what can be gleaned from the stats - not so sure.  And i watched them play.

[SepeBucs]

So I'm glad everyone agrees then, we need to use the 1st two picks on O-line not DE.

Yuccs stats are from that site, and those are the pass pro.

What's the Site?  Anyone have a link or does anyone have a link to a run blocking google doc like Yuc provided for the Pass Protection?

Hmmm, I wonder if there are coupon codes out there, $50 for one team is pricey.

Joseph is a joke. Why Tampa wants to re-sign that bum is unbelievable. Wish MD was reading this damn thread.
