Michael Phillips speculates that Lynden could even possibly be used as a TE...hmmmm 

Agreed but don't forget that Cousins was sacked 7 times last year while both McCoy and Griffin were sacked a lot more.
Any objective fan (or non-fan) would admit that RG3 played a major role in his sacks last season. Sure the line was not good. However - it doesn't help when a QB holds on to the ball too long & does a bad job of feeling pressure. Cousins did a good job several times on Sunday of avoiding pressure.
Several years ago an analysis was made of John Beck (perhaps the Redskins worst QB ever) when the Redskins played the Bills. It showed how Beck was greatly responsible for most of the 10 Bills sacks that day. Same principle applies here. Sacks are not simply a product of poor O-line play.
