Yes, I know, Robert, I was not blaming Rex for the sacks but pointing out
that on that drive the defense adopted what has become a standard formula
for a Rex-led offense: pressure, pressure, pressure.  In those cases, the OL
was, as you say, piss-poor and so they succeeded in sacking him.  Both
happened, IIRC, too quickly for Rex to have a chance at chucking the ball
away.  

So, in essence I'm saying, they overwhelmed Rex's own bad instincts and
still made a good play.
