Arizona – Three Performances of Note Dominant Darnell At times he’s the kind of defensive linemen that gets pushed about in the run game and is invisible rushing the passer. Then, when you give him a rookie making his first start, he looks every bit the star that his fans want to see. Of course I’m referring to Darnell Dockett (+8.5) who feasted on rookie Tim Lelito, making the right guard pay for his hesitancy and showing that he’s still got some spring in his step. Though he graded positively against the run, it was his work rushing the passer that will have him considered for team of the week honors, finishing with three sacks, a hit and three hurries on 39 pass rushes. Considering he went into this game with just a solitary hurry in two games, that’s quite the turnaround.

Missing Evans

Though Jahri Evans had hardly started the season playing well, it was remarkable to see the change in the offense with Tim Lelito (-7.5) coming into the game. I’ve already mentioned how Darnell Dockett feasted on him in the passing game, but it was the impact of his inclusion on the run game that was most notable.

The Saints, at their best offensively, are a team for whom a balanced offense unbalances the opposition. Here though they came in with a clear game plan of passing and paying little more than lip service to the running game. They would call 22 designed runs in this game and just three of those came in the first half. It’s not hard to see why when Lelito himself was culpable for a tackle for a loss on their opening rush (Q1, 8:01) when he was bested by Calais Campbell.

Lelito lined up most of the game against defensive tackle Darnell Dockett, a three-time Pro Bowl pick who recorded three of the Cardinals’ four sacks.
