If you have some time this week, go back and focus on Kittle's blocking vs. NW. We all knew what this guy could do in the passing game, but if he keeps blocking like he did in his last game, he's got an NFL future ahead. Keep in mind that he's blocking DE and LB that have made running the ball extremely difficult for any other team they've faced this year.
Kittle was destroying guys vs. NW. Handling LB and DE and sometimes picking off two people on the same play. It reminded me of one of the preseason camp videos--Levar was working with Kittle because he was struggling with blocking techniques. He had multiple reps of doing it wrong and then he finally got some encouragement from Levar on his last rep in the video. Fast forward two months and he's a critical part of a dominating rushing performance against a good rush defense. Pretty fun to watch his development-- he's come a long way in that part of the game and I'm glad he's got another year left with the Hawks.
