But 0 Sacks and a lot of time in the pocket for the majority of the time in my opinion Should we start with 0 sacks? Or 1 sack if you really wanna consider star pushing Heneicki out of bounds for a half yard loss They were more worried about Heineke running than throwing, so played accordingly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was running around like crazy because of the pressure. It's like he's equating being under pressure to being sacked. He was either under pressure or he wasn't. He was.

I don't think he was pressured much at all. Some plays? Ya for sure. But not consistently. 4 minutes ago, Simon said: I thought he spent a significant portion of the day off his spot because of interior pressure I appreciate your response. I didn't see it that way so we'll have to agree to disagree.

Milano and the secondary were outstanding. I just don't think the D line got any consistent pressure You disagree that Heinecke made some great athletic plays to escape pressure and avoid being sacked? You disagree that the D line forced him into hurried passes and a poor decisions at times? Your and I watched different football games I guess. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are saying if there’s no sacks, they weren’t good. So if we use your philosophy, the Bills DL played great but AJ didn’t because he didn’t have any sacks against Miami. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't generate sacks but the pressure was there. Plus, Hienke and that offense is based on quick drops and throws. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ didn't get any sacks but he caused other sacks because : 1. He was dominant and forced pressure to other lanes. 2. The d line got sacks because they were getting pressure from all angles. what's confusing here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got close a few times, but overall a great job Funny how the OLine does it’s thing, and all of a sudden Josh looks like Josh again. What a coincidence! .
