- PA pass set w/ only 3 eligibles (7 blockers). No pressure. Hawley fine.
- Counter Left w/ Auclair and Sweezy leading. Benenoch is RT. Hawley blocks down and doubles DT w/ him. Benenoch gets mauled.
- Outside Zone Right. Sweezy loses bad. Benenoch and Hawley fine.
- Man Belly w/ Hawley and LG double one DT and Benenoch and RG other w/ OJ single DE. Good movement, but no 2nd level.
- Power O Left w/ Hawley single on DT and Benenoch on backside DE. Hawley (as is typical) gets pushed back. Should have been called for hold. Benenoch blocks DE a second then goes to get 2nd level (as he should). Quizz is forces to cutback into that DE's arms due to Hawley getting pushed aound.
- Shotgun pass set. Hawley and left side are good. Sweezy and Benenoch against Wide 9 DE and stand-up LB who stunt. Benenoch does a poor job here and gives up pressure.
- Same as 1st play. PA w/ only 3 eligibles (7 blockers) so no pressure.
- Outside Zone Toss Right. Brate is manhandled at PoA and killed this play. Hawley is chasing 2nd level, but can't get his LB. Benenoch does a good job in space of finding and taking his man out of the play.
- Shotgun Empty and Benenoch is singled against Wide 9 DE. Killed. Instant pressure. I'm hoping we see none of this formation this week.
** DOT COMES BACK IN ON ONE LEG BECAUSE BENENOCH IS SUCH A MAJOR LIABILITY FOR THOSE LIMITED SNAPS **
- Rest of the snaps are relatively ok, but Dot is literally on one leg and gives up a lot of pressure because of it. Running game still can't do much because of interior line play mostly.
-----------------
Final analysis:
I wouldn't expect to see much, if any Shotgun Spread because Benenoch just cannot pass block on an island. He has no chance. I would expect to see a lot of help by RBs and OJ on the right side in pass sets.
Also, Hawley still struggles mightily when singled against a DT (pocket collapse or penetration on run plays).
