Straightforward pass protection might be Jenkins' strongest of many strong suits. This one, the third snap of the second half, is highlighted because Rodgers needs time for Lazard's deep route to develop, and he needs enough room to step into the long throw. Jenkins provides enough of both against DT Malcom Brown (90). The pocket develops nicely because Hendrickson, coming from the left side, trips over the foot of TE Robert Tonyan (85), allowing Bakhtiari to just pin him on the ground. Also, the Saints' best pass rusher, Jordan, is attacking from the inside, and C Corey Linsley (63) and RG Lucas Patrick (62) shut him down with a double-team, as Patrick gets a little creative with his backside to maintain leverage.
