    Ryan Mallett's average time per pass attempt was 2.06 seconds vs CLE. Off the charts fast, lowest in the league this week.

    That is awesome. I think that played a HUGE part. No one mentioned the fact that we came off a bye week. An extra week of rest can do wonders for an OL. Just look how we started the season.

    Like before, Faster processing what's in front of him and as soon as he likes what he sees, he fires the **** out like a rocket.

    1. Mallett knows the system and made calls on the field also making sure protections were set.
    2. Possibly.
    3. They were missing one key player.
    4. Mallett had the lowest snap - release time of any QB in the NFL last weekend - low 2's. This definitely helps big time.
