Seemed like the protection was basically there today.

Pass protection: yes, essentially fine.

Run blocking: awful. And our backs did not take advantage when it wasn't awful, outside of one play.

Yes, pass protection was great actually. Run blocking, well not so much. Run blocking is going to be the key to our season too (stating the obvious).
