Wood had probably the worst games ive ever seen by a OLmen. Hangartner cant even snap the ball, and our OTs looked bad, I think Bell was benched.

Re: Our OL sucks
they had a crap game... but 1 out of 3 bad games for a young OL isn't what I would consider sucks..
but yes they sucked today as a unit... and yes Wood was having a bad game..
what did anyone expect when we started 2 rookies and a 3rd 1st time starter...Last edited by ddaryl; 09-27-2009, 06:31 PM.

Re: Our OL sucks
What concerns me is when it was obvious passing situations the OL were consistently beat at the end of the game and Edwards could not even make a decent attempt to throw the ball down field. Same thing happened in the NE game. This OL is a definite work in progress. They had a very bad game today.

New Orleans roasted us, pressure up the middle with 3 and 4 man fronts. We have TO and Lee Evans, we NEED to have an o line that can give Trent time to take 5 or 7 step drops, step up in the pocket, and make his throws.
Right now it looks to me like hes sensing the pressure immediately and taking the underneath patterns, which we cant be doing with those 2 top end deep threats.

Re: Our OL sucks
They are young...they are going to 'suck' quite a bit.
Hell, this was a home game...wait until they play a decent defense on the road.
You can't plug in five new players on the line and expect much, especially mostly rookies.

I criticize Trent and draw conclusions about his future performance based on a 3 year body of work. What we saw today out of Trent is what we saw last year when this team went into a tailspin. A guy that's gunshy, lacking confidence, and is off when he does make the throw. It's not that he can't play a solid game from time to time, but the consistency just isn't there...and this is now year 3. He needs to make it happen the rest of the season or he's toast.

Re: Our OL sucks
Originally posted by TheBrownBearThey should be criticized for their play today - no doubt. I'd agree with the OP if the title of the thread was "Our OL sucked." But to state categorically that they suck, when we only have three games in which to evaluate them, and in which two of them they were solid to good, seems overly myopic. IMO.

So before we throw him under the bus I think we could fin more consistant weaknesses on this team.
