That just seems ass-backwards to me. I only played a few years in HS and 1in college, but I always figured that run-blocking was inherently easier than pass-blocking for OLs.
But whatever. Point is, they aren't that good at it. My hope is that for just a few plays they block pretty well and Taylor or that other RB get loose. If they get a little lucky and either break one off for a TD or just get inside the RZ, maybe they can steal a couple scores early. Then they have a better than even chance to steal that game.
