Colledge Still the Weak Link

Packergeeks have done us all a favor and posted a You Tube of the Favre-stumbling-underhanded-flip-to-Donald-Lee-Oh-My-God-He’s-Brilliant play. And it is, indeed, brilliant.
However, what I find more instructive than Favre’s brilliance is the fact that Daryn Colledge has some major problems on the play picking up a pretty standard defensive line stunt. In fact, if Colledge picks up his man correctly, Favre doesn’t get hit at all and all the drama of the stumble and the toss is unnecessary. It’s not a revelation, but Colledge has got to be a major worry for McCarthy going against a pretty impressive defensive line for the Giants.

I noticed that on one of the umpteen times I watched the replay. He also didn’t come back to try and get Mebane from getting to Favre again, but rather was running in the general direction of Lee. And if I noticed it, I’m sure that MM did too, and I hope Colledge works on blocking all week, outside, in the cold, to make up for it.
