Quote:I don't see Blake looking "shell shocked" one bit. I take it you're talking about his being a little conservative? I know he's run out of the pocket a few times, but every time it's been for good reason. He's not shying away or looking at the pass rush or anything like that. He's standing firm and delivering the ball. You can't seriously tell me you'd start Henne this week?

I think if anything Blake held onto the ball too much in the second half and his reluctance to take off hurt him. The entire offense crumbled after the pick 6, nobody looked open and the blocking wasn't holding up. I like that Blake stood tall in the pocket but eventually he needs to put that insane athleticism to use and avoid sacks and make plays out of nothing like we know he is capable. Cam had a rough game for the most part but he keyed some late drives by escaping sacks and improvising. I think Blake's reluctance to improvise stemmed from a loss of confidence after the pick 6 and he started to play tight. He missed some throws in the first half but he challenged the defense at least and the difference in results between the two halves were very apparent.
