?What?
If he stops getting called for false starts in critical situations I MIGHT agree.
Doesn't happen. Just people grasping for something to complain about. It's like the statement that Davis has trouble with speed rushers. He's eaten them alive. Just ask Jason Taylor. By far our best olineman this season.
He gets a head start....and still cant block his man
He doesn't bother blocking his man he just flattens him instead.
They had a kid named Dockery at Guard who pushed 350 on that same OL.
And guess what? They had real trouble with blitzes. The one knock I have on Davis and the rest of the Cards OLine is that they are too big which affects their mobility imo. It's why you see our opponents bringing their LB's so much and spreading their DE's way out from the DT. Trying to use speed to counter our size and thinking it will be difficult for our behemoths to get out quick enough to cut off the DE coming from such a wide angle.
Countering the latter is where Davis is really good because he uses his long arms and amazing strength to shove the DE around or away from the QB when the DE takes the wide angle.
