I've said this 100 times already. The blitz pickups are on the coaches. Period. I don't believe I saw a single one picked up that night and the 9ers blitzed all night.
Also, have you guys never heard vet Olinemen talk about why they don't like the preseason? It's b/c the majority of vets in the trenches have an understanding that they aren't going fill speed. Then you always have young guys coming in trying to price something, and that's when guys get hurt.
I'm much less worried about Albert b/c I'm not altogether sure he was playing to his usual standard. I am though worried about this lines lack of knowledge passed down by the coaches of the blocking scheme. Especially with Allen, Fisher and Hudson. These guys have less experience, and the two vets probably don't know if they can even trust then enough TO hand of blockers to them. Then there is Fisher's lack of ability. At times his footwork looks labored, and his leverage socks. I hope to hell that it is his hand.
