I've been seeing a lot of huddlers here tear down Matt Kalil like he's the worst left tackle in the NFL. Frankly getting tired of it. But well the huddle is gonna huddle. 

 

The following information if from a person that has access to coaches film and did a break down of every game Matt played in including the Saints playoffs game.. Props for Kevin A. For this information and thank you for your time on doing this.  

----------------------------------------------------------------

Matt Kalil gave up 35 pressures and 5 sacks this season. In weeks 2, 3 and 7 he gave up 17 pressures and 5 sacks. 

So if you exclude the Buffalo, Bears and the first Saints game, you're looking at 18 pressures and 0 sacks. So basically he had 3 horrible games which killed his PFF rating. Outside of that he was solid.

In the playoffs "Speed bump McGee" gave up only 2 pressures. That was the best among all of our lineman except for Trai. Sounds like Saints DE Cam Jordan was salty that Matt was working his ass. In fact, Jordan moved to the right side where he started working RT Daryl Williams because M. Kalil wasn't having it.

Matt Kalil had less penalties and less penalty yards than Nate Solder of the Patriots who many of y'all wanted in free agency. Lane Johnson of the Eagles had 10 penalties - Matt only had 7.

So there it is. That's your "Speed bump McGee"  last year.

 

 

 

We all know that one position that can be aligned inline to help speed bump by putting up some Bollards or go out wide and get you the necessary yards.  

Good thing in about football scheme is that you can actually use 2 of them at the same time!

Known fact a TE will get you 8pts in a game vs 7pts like a receiver.

Yeah I agree and if you think about it he was coming off surgery and learning a new system.

@Ivan The Awesome nice post. I think we are all very reactionary at times. The main issue that I saw early were the mental breakdowns and when they seemed to happen. It felt like every 3rd down one of those breakdowns would occur. 

Now, one thing we all need to have is patience. Matt was coming off a year only playing 2 games. If he was a player we liked or drafted we would all be saying "He is rusty and this year he will be better now that he has an entire year to get healthy"

Settle down Beavis.

In all seriousness I sincerely hope Matt Kalil has a solid year. Our season hinges on the ability of our OL to hold up, especially in a division with offenses like the Saints and Falcons where we will have to score often.

[LinvilleGorge]

He wasn’t good last year. I’m hoping that a lot of the cause for it was that he was recovering from that surgery and that he’ll be much improved this coming season. He looked really physically weak out there last year.

I imagine that Cam being a mobile qb can make a below average LT look at least average.

[Rubi]

Removing Shula was the biggest addition by subtraction of all time. Watch this offense roll this year even if Kalil is the LT. 

[Smithers]

Did this film buff also examine how many damn times our TE was taken out as a receiving threat because he had to stay in to help block for Matt’s sorry ass?

Everybody looks better when you drop their three worst games.  5 sacks in three games.  Sheesh.  Look, even the coaches were saying that Kalil needs to play better.  I agree that he looked better second half of the season than first.  He needs a better season this year, or he won't be sticking around.

 

Let me add to that, 3 bad games out of the first 7 makes a bad impression.  At least he had nowhere to go but up.

I think Cam's style of play makes it a bit harder.  He doesn't like to step up into the pocket, instead he backpedals back, giving the edges a direct line.  Not saying that I want Cam to be a Brady and step up, but it looks harder on the tackles.  Far easier to form a pocket so they lose the angle and have to go through the o-line.
