Greg Bedard: He led the team with 4 total quarterback pressures and 3 1/2 stuffed runs. He wasn’t perfect, but he was a beast.

Greg Bedard: Drake was the whole offense. I thought all of his scrambles were legit..at the end of the day I thought he played well and he played like a rookie and these are the things you have to deal with.
Hunter Henry

Greg Bedard: To me, he has been the best performing offensive player all season. I think he’s been largely terrific all season. It’s too bad they don’t have a scheme and blocking to actually get him the ball more.

Greg Bedard: Again, not his fault. It’s Alex Van Pelt and Jerod Mayo’s fault for putting him in that position..
Felger: How many negative plays?
Greg Bedard: 3 in 21 snaps. But he largely got his ass kicked.

Greg Bedard: He has been largely horrendous the past 3 weeks. I mean, there are times where he’s not blocking anybody or just gets beat. I mean, I thought he was really good the first about five games of the season, but man, you know there was a lot of talk about Cole Strange when he comes back, let’s put him in the center. No. Put him back at left guard please.
