Flutie made a line that was getting ripped for not protecting Johnson look like the Hogs. His decision making was so much quicker the whole complexion of the offense changed. He skipped passes off the turf and went really cold at times, but he recognized where things were and went after them. Moulds' RAC ability was dangerous, esp. combined with Price's speed, and he found them. Brees could have a 3500 yard season here with a journeyman line placed in front of him. Price and Nelson are legit upper tier talent, Freddie is better than many.
You can't flat out blitz/attack a guy with a brain, they will get 6 at some point, and force the defense back in coverage. I was a bigger line critic until I saw the difference Flutie made and again when (dare I say it) Edwards took over for JP. Things loosened up and all the sudden the protection was better, because the ball came out on time. I know, since... not so much. He looked good early, though.
