Ivan Pace as a blitzer in this game was eating Cade Otten alive. There were multiple plays, especially in the second half... he blew up Cade Otten like early in the third quarter... he explodes Cade Otten to get, I think, a sack.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Otten overwhelmed by Pace's blitzes; multiple blown blocks and sacks allowed.

Cade Otten was eaten alive by Vikings linebacker Ivan Pace in Week 3. Pace had multiple plays where he blew up Otten early in the third quarter, swiped past him (allowing Otten to squirt out of the backfield but still resulting in an incredible pass rush), and later exploded Otten to get a sack. Otten could not handle Pace's blitz assignments.
