PFF's Re-Focused: Texans at Saints

by bigfatdrunk on Sep 26, 2011 2:41 PM CDT

For those of us who watched, nothing completely surprising here. I did (unintentionally) overlook Glover Quin's particularly poor day, though.

Looking at the individual rankings, if anything jumps out at me, it's Connor Barwin's poor rankings. So far, Barwin has only one sack, one QB hit, and three pressures. Mario Williams has two sacks, two QB hits, and 12 pressures. It seems to be Barwin, not Mario, who's having the hardest time adjusting to the 3-4.

Well they do usually give Mario the easier-to-beat guy on the OLine right?

We move them around a lot

But I think some of it has to do with trying to keep Mario from dropping into coverage.

A Texans fan. Really. No, I'm not kidding.

So much for my prediction that Barwin would lead the team in sacks this year

Although his one sack did come against Jake Long, so at least there’s that.

He was a monster in preseason

I know it was preseason, but he was going against 1s

Mario Williams will have 4 sacks and 1 int by Game 4 of the regular season.

He looked good at times against Long.

He should get some credit for the Smith sack against Miami because he basically pushed Long right into Henne, so Henne couldn’t get away.

Jackson was targeted nine times, allowed receptions on eight and was horrendously abused by Lance Moore in particular, without making a single play in coverage.
