Without Fred Jackson, we would not be leading the league in rushing. If we hadn't opened up against KC and Oakland, we would not be #1 in rushing. I stand by my answer.
The O-line has looked adequate; these two wins have been entirely because of our skill players (on offense at least.) Fitz had very little time to throw yesterday, he was getting rid of the ball extremely quickly. Jackson made the most out of some small gaps.
BTW, I'm not one who was bashing the O-line before the season, I was (and still am) hoping that experience brings them more confidence and success. But don't expect to still be leading the league in rushing at the end of the season.
Maybe.
The Pats defense hasn't been stellar.
