I weep when I think about life without Harvin.
I set up my WR corps in week 1 with Bryant as the #1 WR so I could gameplan with the idea of no Harvin in the playoffs - the results were not good. Week 2 I went with the real meritocracy of Harvin at the #1....he promptly went off for 140 yds. He also had a 70 yd kick return.
With Harvin I like my chances against anyone. Losing him is going to absolutely kill me.
That said, I couldn't have drawn up today's performance much better. My rookie bookend DEs combined for 5 sacks and my young free-agent DT snagged another one. A 26% pressure rating is pretty damn impressive - well done, gentlemen. The re-tooled O-line was incredibly solid with a sub 3% pressure rate surrendered.
CJ had a couple of nice runs to ice the game and it was only a few stalled drives with goal to go that kept this from being an absolute laugher.
Today's performance was the team I expected to see. High efficiency passing game (not too far behind Brady's performance), an aggressive rush from my down lineman and a YPA below 6 due to a sturdy coverage unit.
This is an extremely good football team. It's a damn shame the wheels come off it before the playoffs...
