There you go focusing on one play again.
Okay let's go to another one.. How about the 4th and 1 play early on against Denver where he got blown back into the hole and allowed the DT to basically help Zeke take the handoff? Or maybe the blatant whiff he had on Pollard's run for -5 on Thanksgiving where he didn't even lay a mitt on the guy and the guy dropped Pollard for a 5 yard loss on 3rd and short? I could run through more if you like but like I said.. the guy doesn't suck.. He's serviceable and (hopefully) improving at this point. But he's not gonna get any bigger or any stronger until the offseason so I'm not expecting any huge jump in his play this year. So when we get to the playoffs and play teams that have big strong DTs he's going to get owned and so will our inside running game.. Pretty much every team in the NFC playoff hunt has that guy.. so Moore and Philbin need to be figuring out how to compensate for the fact that we still have two guys in the middle of our line who are as likely to get pushed back as they are to win and go forward.
