Don't forget, the ends will always get the glory but it's the push in the middle that screws up an O line's play. I'd like to see Bulman get 6 to 8 sacks this year and you guys would still want to hold Mario's jock. Now let's get back to the play.
He did not get juked. No fancy move by some fast, squirrelly guy. He choked. Game was on the line and he choked. #1 pick inthe draft and had an open field tackle to make...the basics. Didn't see him stand up and do his little dance moves though did we?

Whoa buddy. I was never a fan of mario when he was drafted but give credit where credit is do. Has anyone heard from Weaver lately
. If the interior is holding up so well why is Weaver not excelling as your logic suggests. Or are they doubling him too.
Sometimes the move to the qb may not be all that "PRETTY" but its about having that non stop motor to get to the qb.
So when your "precious interior lineman" (whom have combined for 26/354 tackles and 0 sacks) have gotten tired and eased up on the play Mario is falling on the ground crawling after the qb.
I am not in anyway indicating that Mario is the best End in the league but after only 3 years in the league he is in the top 5-10.
