Last Place Schedule Here We Come

This scrub offensive line they put together for the last two games of the season did pretty well. Much better than the one with Williams and Banks

True, especially in the last game.

Improving any position is really to improve consistency. A good O-line is for consistency throughout the entire season, plus play-offs. A good O-line is for BOTH run and pass, consistency in both phases. Even if we only add a top ROG or top Cen, it'll make a big difference with consistency.

BTW - I'm fine even if we start TWO rookies on the O-line.

My only concern with newbies in the line is protecting Purdy. He will be a very expensive commodity next year Consistency, as you said, along with continuity is the key

Yes continuity is also important, but this is a tough one because eventually you'll insert 'new' lineman. For me continuity is normally gained after at least half a season. Whether FA's or Rookies, there will be changes sooner or later, and then they need time to gel. If other feel the time frame is shorter, no problem here.

If...IF...we start two rookies on the O-line, continuity is of course lacking initially. But as the season goes on and for the next few seasons, continuity should be better.
