Does your O line suck?

[geezer]

Ours is a revolving door without the door.

 

[bksballer89]

Yeah it's pretty bad

 

[Dude]

Nope, the genius Belichik has invented a new way to get the most out of an O-line made up essentially by rookies. Strategy of confusion through rotation. Look it up, it's game changing.

Yes it sucks, but DumbDumb makes it look worse than it actually is.

I heard that somewhere. If it is successful, it will be adopted by other teams. What skews those results is Brady. He is quick with the release.

That's actually a colouring book he's trying to figure out.

True. BB studies a lot and makes his players follow that principle. They are always ready, the dink & dunk strategy is not based on Brady's capacities as a QB, which are quite clear. The Pats are constantly analyzing strengths of the team and weaknesses of opponents to make the most out of players on the field in game time. There is a lot of criticism about the Pats, but one thing that cannot be denied is that they plan for the future. That is why they have been successful - it is an organizational strategy much like a company that instills basic principles in the team for them to excel every year.

 

[Wazmankg]

Yeah, but our QB can't run so it evens out.

 

[Duffman]

Ours is getting better by the week but it's bottom of the league for sure. Of course that depends on the week and who's brand new this time as we have had a new guy every week.

 

[darken65]

The 9ers' O-line could suck a bowling ball through a garden hose!

 

[LambeauLegs]

Nope no problems in GB the O line is one of the best in the league. Right tackle Bulaga is out for a few weeks yet so have not been at full strength for the last 3 weeks but will be soon. The good thing is that there is team depth and if an injury does arise it will not cause a significant drop in talent. Rodgers has been sacked 6 times in 4 games so not that bad being 7th in QB sacks for QBs that have played a full 4 games

I am guessing it is hard to pay for a good O line with the defense costing so much. The Seahawks kind of look like the Cowboys that were 8 - 8 for how many years before they invested in an O line

 

[NinerSickness]

NoRight tackle Bulaga is out for a few weeks

I vaguely remember seeing that guy on injury reports quite a bit. Does he always seem to get hurt?

He has been hurt a few times. 2 seasons ago he blew out his knee in preseason and Barclay the guy filling in now played that whole season at right tackle. He also missed like 1/2 of another season with some kind of hip injury. I think this is like his 5th or 6th year and he has missed maybe 1/3 of total games

When you run for 100 yards in the 4th quarter, when it matters, is it more rookie offensive line improving or rookie running back being good. We will learn more as the season progresses.

I thought it was Klinger!

To try to maintain a competitive balance the NFL has many ideas in place, salary cap, draft slotting, free agency, and other things so the rich don't get too rich and the poor don't get too poor. Unfortunately some teams and GMs don't quite understand that you need to put in a system and plan and work that system and plan. Instead, they cave to the pressure of outside voices, fans, owners and other outside influences and make a mess a bigger mess. For some teams that cycle just never seems to end...

 

[ATL96Steeler]

Steelers...solid...C out, but Wallace holding up ok...OL doing well for Ben...Vick holding it longer took 5 sacks last week....hopefully that changes this week. I will say...coaching matters because prior to Munchak signing on as OL coach, this unit sucked also.

Falcons...total makeshift except Matthews at LT...traded for LG in Sept...RT is young, RG, C idk last year...they looked terrible in camp supposedly with the initial cast...made these last minute changes...best a Falcon OL has looked...maybe ever thru 4 games.
