Dobbs should have been going to the TE on that, throwing into the blitz and replacing.
The real mistake made here is that protection slide the wrong way, IMO. Broncos brought 5, we doubled the inside DL and left the ILB free through a huge gap. RB is there to pick it up but I don’t think this is how we draw that up.
I don’t think this is so much a skill/teachable situation. Chandler isn’t a big powerful guy, he’s going to struggle stopping ILB’s with a full head of steam up the middle. Maybe he should have tried to cut him at the knees? I’m not sure. He gave it what he has. We just can’t expect him to be great on those.
