Pass blocking is much improved, but run blocking not so much. I expect the development of Hunt (laTech), Jackson and Kindley (Ga), all rookies, to improve the run game. Kindley and Hunt are maulers, they need some time to adjust to the pro game.
Eh, I think Howard is just slow. While it may not be elite, the O-Line has done fine in both run and pass protection. Hell, that undrafted rookie had like 20 carries and averaged 4+ yds on Sunday. Howard just doesn’t have any speed, evidenced by his 1 yd per carry average. Hopefully he goes back to Philly, he had some success there previously.
