Heyer was great, actually, perfect on running plays and all but perfect on passing plays.

I saw Rinehart make the only blown block out of anyone on the starting line, but it was a running play, so no harm done.

Samuels was Samuels, but Dockery wasn't all that confident in where he was supposed to help. Of course, given that we only threw 6 times, there's no reason for worry here, yet.

First offense did some nice things, but ultimately, it was just a snapshot of last year's problems. Stayed out of third and long, but did not convert the third and mediums. Even if you think Campbell's days are numbered, you have to like the last play of the first drive. Getting to the fourth read against a six man rush is exactly the next step in his progresion. Protection held, but the Ravens did a good job collapsing the pocket and there was no throwing lane.
GTripp, what was up with the running game...was it Betts or the offensive line? I get the sense that with Portis this will be different of course. I think if the running game had been better, the two series with the first team offense would have been much better (and if Haggans had not dropped that pass).
