Might just be me, but it seemed that Pitcock was really getting shoved around on the plays I saw him. Think maybe it has more to do with technique than sheer strength?

I thought maybe the NFL OL were quick enough to exert leverage before Quinn could set himself... but I am just throwing darts, here...

ANOTHER INJURY: Rookie defensive tackle Quinn Pitcock, a third-round draft pick from Ohio State, missed both practices Tuesday with a hamstring injury. It's the same injury that kept Pitcock out of action most of the first week of training camp.

Dungy said he was unaware of the severity of Pitcock's injury and was hopeful it wouldn't keep him out long.

"He had an MRI, just to make sure," Dungy said. "Hopefully, it's just a little scar tissue in there, but we'll see how it goes."

The Colts are still in search of a defensive lineman to fill in for the injured Anthony McFarland. Ed Johnson and Quinn Pitcock are prime candidates for the job. The Colts also may rotate the two on the line.

DEFENSIVE LINE

Just when things seemed to be in order for the Colts’ defensive line, this had to happen. Anthony McFarland, whose addition to the team midway through last season helped transform the Colts from porous to powerful, went down in training camp with a torn patella tendon. His season is done. That created a fascinating position battle between rookies Ed Johnson, who was undrafted out of Penn State, and Quinn Pitcock, a third-round pick out of Ohio State. Johnson looked better in training camp, but both will see action. And it’s well within the realm of possibility the Colts will bring someone else in this season. But the rest of the line is solid, especially when it comes to rushing the passer – Dwight Freeney is one of the best in the business, drawing double teams all the time, and Robert Mathis is a speedster on the other side. But the middle of the line must hold up if the Colts want to shut down opposing teams’ run games, and that means Raheem Brock and either Johnson or Pitcock will have to be good.

Quinn Pitcock waited a month to make his NFL debut. When the Indianapolis Colts rookie defensive tackle finally dressed for a game Oct. 7, he was on the field for just eight plays.

It was not exactly the workload Pitcock anticipated when he was selected in the third round of April's NFL draft. Confident rookies always expect to have an immediate impact. They don't foresee being a "healthy scratch," as Pitcock was for the Colts' first four games.

A senior captain and one of the strongest players at Ohio State last season, Pitcock has been sitting while an undrafted rookie, Ed Johnson, has solidified himself as the starter next to veteran Raheem Brock. And the coaches have stuck with another rookie, seventh-round pick Keyunta Dawson, as a reserve in the four-man tackle rotation due to Dawson's ability to rush the passer.
"Ed got in and he's done well," Pitcock said. "There's no reason to change. Stick with what's working. You can't sit back and think the year is over with. Anything can happen. I'm prepared to play when I get a chance."
Pitcock knows it could be worse.

Then there's defensive tackle Quinn Pitcock. He not only has filled in on the battered offensive line, he has been complimented for the quality of his play at a position he hasn't manned since elementary school.
"People thought I looked good pulling," Pitcock said dismissively. "I'm faster than most of the offensive linemen so it does kind of look good when I'm pulling.
"Last week was difficult because I did all scout team and zero reps with the 1s and I got in the game and I still had to be prepared and I did well."
Pitcock had two tackles while playing about a dozen snaps at San Diego.

D-line 'drives the train'
Colts, 9-2, use injection of youth to build strong and deep unit
By Phil Richards

Pitcock (6-2, 299) is a run stuffer who plays mostly early downs. His progress was impeded by a hip-flexor problem that relegated him to the sideline when training camp opened. He has worked his way into the rotation and his hunger for more is evident.
"If someone runs out tired, I try to hurry up and get out there, get it before somebody else gets in, steal a play or two," Pitcock said. "It's tough because everybody's playing well and there's a limited amount of plays."
