Did you ever think, that because of the obvious problems between Martin and Incognito at the time, there was a lack of cohesion?
That definitely crossed my mind. This just proves the point that chemistry is everything. I know some of you guys are discounting the Connor Barwin article because it sounds like he is trying to protect the brand. But the OL group needs to be the most tight knit. All their assignments are dependent on each other and trust is a huge factor. If one guy messes up, then it could mean an injury to the QB. I'm actually surprised that Tannehill stayed pretty healthy during this whole ordeal.
A personality like Incognito would fit better on a DL where he can wreak havoc and occupy blockers. Some cohesiveness/trust is needed in a defensive line, but most of the time it comes down to reading whether it's a run or pass play and going balls out towards the QB or ball carrier.
