Agreed!!! The blocking is the best that he has had for the past three years, but its not great. He is doing great. The scary thing is that he is still leaving yards out there on the field. When he slipped in the backfield last week he was about to break out to the left side for a decent if not a big gain. That has happened once or twice per week. Everyone needs to savor the work that Adrian is doing because it will be legend in the future.
