McGinn on Packers OL and secondary

[MickeyDavis]

I can't link to this article because it's a Packers Insider article and I can't post the whole thing either for that reason. So I'll just include his comments on the OL and secondary, his two lowest ratest positions on Sunday.

OL:

After watching Tony Moll play poorly against ordinary DE's, isn't it time to see if Breno Glacomini could hold up any better? If he's ready, let him play and see what he's got. It's hard to imagine anyone pass-blocking worse than Moll did.

Reggie Hayward turned the corner twice against him for sacks in 3.4 and 2.9 seconds, and Moll gave up 3 1/2 other presures. Jason Spitz wasn't very good either. He was too wide on the Packers second play when DT Rob Meier penetrated to make a tackle for minus 5.

He also missed Ingram on a run for minus 4 and didn't show much anchor in protection. Daryn Colledge did some good things, including an exceptional block on an early 15 yard screen, but when push came to shove in short yardage neither he nor his linemates measured up.

There is isn't enough power in this group, and it usually shows up most in road games. Chad Clifton protected well agasint talented rookie DE Derrick Harvey until exiting before the final series with two sprained thumbs. The Jaguars front just seemed to want it more.

Secondary:

With the game on the line, Al Harris didn't get deep enough and gave up a 41 yard pass to Dennis Northcutt in his third of a three deep zone coverage.

Nick Collins didn't stay deeper than the deepest and thus was in no position to help Harris. Collins was brutal. He was out of position on the 30 yard TD pass to Northcutt, blew the coverage on a 19 uard pass tp TE Greg Estandia and took a bad angle and missed the tackle of Jones-Drew on his 14 yard TD. Collins performance level has really dipped in the last month.

Cornerbacks Will Blackmon and Tramon Williams also gave up big plays. Blackmon went for a nod and go route by Northcutt for the TD on third and 19, then gave up a 17 yard pass to Northcutt on third and 19 by not playing deep enough in a Cover 2 zone.

Consigned to obsurcurity years ago, Northcutt also ran past williams for a 35 yard gain. Charles Woodson got caught on an early bootleg and should have had two sacks rather than one, but he also was very active and delivered some strong face up tackles of Jones-Drew.

Aaron Rouse has got himself into a position where he didn't even play a snap from scrimmage.
