Football 301: Targets and Sacks - Week 16

Not Romo's best day of the month, but a very effective evening for the passing attack. And the trends in the offense are very interesting to notice as we get to the most crucial time of the year...

Austin = 9-10 for 7 First Downs. Witten = 6-7 for 4 First Downs. Here are your Top 2 targets on the team. In a few days, I want to compare Austin's year to Owens as a Dallas Cowboy, but it is clear that there is little to no drop off. The real question is becoming who is the #3 target? Roy or Crayton?

I know people are going to start whispering if I keep going on and on about Miles Austin every week, but are you kidding me? 4-4 on 3rd Downs for 4 conversions? You often find out who a QB trusts on the money down. Well, against that backdrop, this week, we see that Austin, Witten, and Crayton have earned the trust on different levels of Tony Romo. And who is missing completely?

SACKS

Sack - 1Q - 1/10/31 - Sack by Daniels



What Happened: 22 personnel, and this is a spot where it is tough to assign blame for allowing the lone sack of the night. Adams is beat badly by Brian Orakpo while Chris Wilson slices between a double team of Davis and Free. This flushes Romo forward in the pocket where Philip Daniels picks up the free tackle after being held up by Martellus Bennett and Deon Anderson. I feel like Adams being beat is what causes this thing to collapse, but I also have a hard time charging him for a full sack. I may need to consult with my guys in the film room.

----------------------------------------------------
The Rankings so far in Sacks Allowed among the OL: Adams - 7, Davis - 4, Gurode - 4, Colombo - 2, Free - 2, Kosier - 1.

I would charge .5 sack to Adams and .5 sack to Davis. But if you truly want to charge one person I think the pressure Davis allowed is worse. Having had help from Free, Davis absolutely has to be able to hold his ground.

One comment on the season numbers: 7 sacks allowed by a left tackle isn't really good but it's not terrible. But 4 by a center or a guard is.
