In the offensive and defensive linemen battles, the star attraction was rookie Chandler Jones. The first-round pick out of Syracuse had an impressive showing, beating Nate Solder down low and using his leverage and quickness to get around him early on, the first of two wins for him on the line. Later, Solder got a bit of revenge with a shoulder jab that kept Jones at bay. It was a good day for the defensive line, as they won a majority of the battles, including Vince Wilfork getting the better of Dan Connolly and Brandon Deaderick getting the best of Donald Thomas.
