Despite losing Nate Solder to a record-breaking contract offer in free agency Donald Trump Color Rush Jersey , the New England Patriots’ offensive line has not skipped a beat this season. In fact, the unit has looked as good as it ever has with Trent Brown replacing the long-time starting left tackle. Brown’s performance over the first 13 games of the year is a big reason for the Patriots’ success up front — but so is the play of the other four starters.One of Brown’s four teammates stands out in particular: starting right guard Shaq Mason. After signing a five-year, $50 million contract extension in late August, Mason is playing up to his price tag and constantly showing why he is not just one of the NFL’s best guards but of the best offensive linemen overall. According to advanced analytics website Pro Football Focus, only six players are graded better this year than the 25-year old:As PFF author Michael Renner notes in his story on the NFL’s top 25 blockers, Mason’s performance in the run game is the main reason for his excellent grade — the second highest for a right guard behind only the Dallas Cowboys’ Zack Martin (80.2). Over the years, however, the Georgia Tech product also grew into a reliable pass protector for quarterback Tom Brady and is now an all-around Pro Bowl-level player.While the grades handed out by PFF are by no means the be-all-end-all of player evaluation and performance assessment https://www.patriotsfanstore.com/Eric-Rowe-Jersey , they still tend to recognize a players’ strengths and weaknesses in particular situations. And seeing Mason’s grade rank him among the NFL’s best linemen is certainly reflective of his overall play this season. Safe to say that the Patriots made a smart move locking him up long-term. The New England Patriots left no doubt about their status as one of the NFL’s best teams on Sunday: they blew out the visiting Los Angeles Chargers 41-28 in the two teams’ divisional playoff meeting to punch their ticket to the conference championship game later this week. Let’s dig a little deeper into New England’s playoff opener and analyze some advanced statistics from the contest.Pass distributionNFL Next Gen StatsTom Brady had a very productive day at the office on Sunday: the veteran quarterback efficiently targeted most areas of the field agains the Chargers’s cover 3 zone defense, all while spreading the football around well. Hitting seven players on the day, Brady established a rhythm early by getting the football out of his hands quickly which in turn helped neutralize Los Angeles’ talented pass rushers.Philip Rivers, on the other day, was mostly kept in check by New England’s defense. The Pro Bowler was held under 50% due to a variety of pressure packages and some strong man-to-man coverage down the field. The majority of his passing yardage — he had just 121 yards through quarters one and two — was produced late in the game, when the Patriots opened up space underneath to help prevent against the big play.Offensive rush directionNFL Next Gen StatsNew England’s offensive line had an outstanding day, and was especially productive in the ground game. Together with tight ends Rob Gronkowski, who essentially served as a third tackle at times and helped clear the edge on Rex Burkhead’s 6-yard touchdown in the second quarter Josh Gordon Jersey , and Dwayne Allen as well as fullback James Develin, the group paved the way for 156 yards on 32 non-kneel-down carries (4.9 yards per attempt).The most productive ball carrier on the day was once again Sony Michel. The first-round rookie ran the football 24 times for 129 yards and three touchdowns, and as can be seen was effective no matter which gap he opted to attack. The right edge, of course, still stands out: Michel burst open for a 40-yard scamper that set up the aforementioned Burkhead scoring run. Another outstanding performance by the rookie.Receiver separationNFL Next Gen StatsOne reason for Philip Rivers’ below-average completion percentage is the tight coverage played by New England’s defenders. As can be seen in the graphic above, only tight end Antonio Gates and wide receiver Tyrell Williams — Los Angeles’ leading receiver with five catches for 94 yards — were open more than two yards at the time of being targeted. The league average, for comparison, is 2.82 yards of separation.Three of New England’s pass catchers were below that number Antonio Garcia Color Rush Jersey , while two were more open than that. But while Cordarrelle Patterson’s lone target fell incomplete, Julian Edelman torched the Chargers’ beat coverage to the tune of nine catches for 151 yards. Los Angeles simply had no answer for the veteran, who appeared in his first playoff game in almost two years and had an outstanding performance as Tom Brady’s primary wide receiver.Pass protectionPass protection statisticsPlayerSnapsSacksQB HitsHurriesPlayerSnapsSacksQB HitsHurriestwitter.com/jeffphoweAs noted above, the Patriots offensive line had a very good day against L.A. when it comes to run blocking — and it was equally impressive in pass protection as well. Despite going against one of the league’s best pass rushing duos in Melvin Ingram and Joey Bosa, the unit did not give up even a single sack and allowed Tom Brady to be hit just three times on the day. The quick passing game played a role in this, sure, but so did the blocking up front.Pass rush/run defensePass rush/run defense statisticsPlayerSnapsSacksQB HitsHurriesRun stopsPlayerSnapsSacksQB HitsHurriesRun stopstwitter.com/jeffphoweNew England’s pass rush was outstanding against the Chargers. Led by Dont’a Hightower’s 10 (!) quarterback disruptions, the team never allowed Philip Rivers to get into any rhythm and successfully challenged the offensive line in front of him all game long. All in all https://www.patriotsfanstore.com/Cyrus-Jones-Jersey , the Patriots were able to impact the quarterback on 27 of his 53 dropbacks — a big reason for the defensive success the team enjoyed against one of the NFL’s better offenses.Defensive rush directionNFL Next Gen StatsWith the Patriots offense scoring touchdowns on its first four possessions, the Chargers were quickly forced to abandon the run. Even when its turned the pass as its primary mode of transporting the football down the field, however, no lanes opened up for the running backs — at least none L.A. was willing and able to attack. After the team attempted just six rushes for 17 yards in the first half, it ran the football just four times for only two net yards in the second.Pass rush separationNFL Next Gen StatsThe pass rush separation charts reflect what the numbers above also illustrate: Tom Brady was under virtually no pressure all day, while Philip Rivers was not allowed to get into any sort of rhythm. As can be seen, New England’s blockers kept the Chargers’ defenders away from the quarterback with Joey Bosa the closest at 4.17 yards of separation on an average pass rushing attempt.For comparison, all four of the Patriots’ own pass rushers — led by Dont’a Hightower Jordan Richards Color Rush Jersey , who basically lived in Los Angeles’ backfield on Sunday — getting closer to their target as Bosa. New England won the trenches on both sides of the football no matter if it came to the running or the passing game.Pass coveragePass coverage statisticsPlayerSnapsTargetsCompletionsYardsTouchdownsInterceptionsRatingPass BreakupsPlayerSnapsTargetsCompletionsYardsTouchdownsInterceptionsRatingPass Breakupstwitter.com/jeffphoweWhile some of the Patriots’ pass coverage numbers do not look all that spectacular, the pass defense as a whole still had a very good outing versus a talented opponent. Led by starting boundary cornerbacks Stephon Gilmore and J.C. Jackson, who had once again very good games (with Gilmore’s lapse on a 43-yard touchdown pass to Keenan Allen the only exception), the unit pretty much shut down Philip Rivers and company in the first half before turning to a slightly less aggressive approach in the second.
